Alpine linux on Tilaa

Introduction

Tilaa is my vps provider but doesn't have alpine in the install options After playing around with the vps systems... coreos ubuntu.. i did make mistakes... coreos got invaded ... opened a webgui... forgot to protect it... needed to get some data from it. So used the Tilaa rescue boot (in the Dashboard) and mounted the disks. Also used it when i increased the disk size for an installation (if I remember correctly), deleting the partition, creating a new one with the same starting address), do a resize2fs to expand and voila.. Bob was my uncle.

After playing arround with Alpine Linux in coreos and ubuntu lxd. I thought it would be a nice distro to get running straight from the vps. A weekend without sunlight but with pixellight I got it running, needs another iteration to make it a smooth experiance :o.
