This is assuming you meant www.rimuhosting.net...

Rimuhosting's probably a perfectly fine Linux virtual hosting provider, 
but last I checked they insist on building their own DomU kernels for 
the Xen guests, so any reasonably conventional FreeBSD installation is 
probably not possible.

That said, it's worth contacting them to ask.  They're fairly responsive 
and they're bright people.
