Oracle Free Cloud restore boot volume backup

I wanted to try out the Oracle Free Cloud, but i have a problem with restoring a backup boot volume to the instance.

Is it possible to restore a boot volume backup and replace the current one from the instance?

At the moment i was only able to terminate the current instance and boot volume and create a new instance out of the backup. But then the public IP changed...

You cannot restore the backup directly to a running instance. You need to create a volume from the backup and use the same to boot your instance and it will change the Public IP. But you may prefer to use elastic IP if its allowed within the free tier.
