Hi

i have a problem since this week end. i cant log in to my fedora VM anymore. The problem is that i have made my VM boot at login and the network is not working (i use gpu passthrough to connect in local direclty).
I try to use a Live USB stick to mount my LVM volume but (pve-root partition) but in /etc/pve there is nothing in there.
How can i find and change this config file ?
on the login screen of my VM i cant access to the TTY console to connect to proxmox.

Any suggestions ?
Thanks

That is normal as the Proxmox services need to be started as the files are not on disk but in a database:.

Any suggestions ?
Temporarily disable IOMMU in the motherboard BIOS or the kernel command line (in the boot menu) to prevent VMs with PCI(e) passthrough from starting?

If you completely disabled the host console for the passthrough in /etc/modproble.d/ (and cannot temporarily add another GPU of fix this on the kernel commandline) then it's much more involved and you probably need to chroot into the Proxmox like one does for a GRUB repair on Linux.
