If I get virtual server with installed Linux OS or smth else can I reinstall it and use for example Windows instead?

Windows won't even start up with the specs. Forget about trying to install it.

What OS do you intend to install though? With the specs, only Linux would run on it.

I would say a definite yes. Examples can be Ubuntu, Redhat and Mint.

Our servers are unmanaged and you have about 5 distros ready for the installer to speed up your VPS, I'm not so sure that you could install your own on our VPS servers.

Thank you for answer.

No worries, our tech admin would be open to install any linux distro that can work on a VPS only if you have technical knowledge about the linux as far as I remember, because we had similar question to yours already.

Thank you! I just write web apps on Java and try to understand fully how its configures on servers.
