are you trying to install from the OVH manager? if there is any problem with that reinstallation and it doesn't complete by itself, then our engineers will intervene.

Is that the case or you're doing your own installation?

Thanks

Thank you for your answers. Also I have another problem with CitrixXen installation. In installation log I'm getting the next error:
Commentary
Post install check did not find 'OpenSSH 4.3' in port n.22 prompt (prompt returns: 22/tcp open ssh (protocol 2.0)), please retry
I tried to install VmWare ESXi and everything is fine with it. But I tried with Citrix about 3 times. Can this be fixed, since it's very important for me to install it?

1) No idea, but you can convert an ext3 filesystem to ext4: https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto
2) Netboot allows you to boot your server from the OVH network. Rescue mode will allow you to log in and attempt to fix problems preventing your server from booting - think of it like a live CD. You can also boot using a stock OVH kernel.
3) IP address locations are just the real-world address specified for the IP block the RIR database. Some services will think you're in the US, those using smarter algorithms won't.
