Reinstall to Debian 13 in the provider's control panel

The first version of WP Panel Assistant only supports Debian 13, 64-bit, x86_64. If the system does not meet the requirements, please reinstall in the provider's backend first.

Back up before reinstalling

Reinstalling will wipe the system disk, and websites, databases, certificates, SSH configurations, and backups on the server may be permanently lost. Please back up your data to another server or local computer first, and confirm that it can be read.

General steps

1. Open the server details page in the provider's console.
2. Find „Reinstall system“, „Reset system“, or „Change image“.
3. Select Debian 13 (Trixie), 64-bit, x86_64, and prefer a minimal installation.
4. After confirming the backup, start the reinstallation and wait for the system to finish booting.
5. Reconnect using the new IP, password, or SSH key.

SSH fingerprint change

SSH fingerprint changes after reinstallation are normal. Please confirm that the server was indeed just reinstalled, then confirm and update the fingerprint in the assistant. Specific provider entry points and screenshots will continue to be added.
