    Mounting a VM disk outside of Proxmox (in Debian)

    That's a great summary thanks. Do I see which of these file systems is in use via "fdisk -l" or file extensions? Alternatively can I just try the various options without the commands themselves messing up anything if it's the wrong type?

    Mounting a VM disk outside of Proxmox (in Debian)

    Hi Firstly sorry if this is a question that has been asked before. I tried using the search feature on the forum and also Google just in case, but didn't find a question that was this specific. My server went down and I had to replace the motherboard. Proxmox does not like some aspect of the...

    Proxmox freezes randomly.

    I had these issues with a first and to a lesser degree second gen Ryzen. Fiddling with C-states and different kernels for the guest OS eventually solved it. Most of the issues I had was caused by a VM running with the host CPU option. Certain Linux kernels caused this problem and using different...

    Debugging boot issues (with the installation media as well)

    That's a really nice option that I probably will pursue when I have the time. I can throw up the output from lsmod as well just in case you or somebody else knowledgeable on the subject sees any red flags :)

    Debugging boot issues (with the installation media as well)

    So this didn't work. I think the issue might be that something is not mounted as it should be, but the wiki page just mentions that commands may be different depending on your system and offers no insight into how I can figure out which devices to mount or what they actually would refer to if...

    Debugging boot issues (with the installation media as well)

    Video was in real time so it may very well be some shenanigans at the kernel loading stage as well. That said I have always felt that this machine has been slow to boot. Might just be an AM4 platform quirk or the fact that there are many drives and PCIe cards in play (SAS controller + network...

    Debugging boot issues (with the installation media as well)

    Like my initial post stated there is not much to show. I'm currently at work but if you follow this link https://drive.google.com/file/d/1o00nHnuIBs4OFly-91vuHIS1KlcMgtt1/view?usp=sharing you can see a video I took yesterday. Note that in this video I have not tried to remove "quiet" as per the...

    Debugging boot issues (with the installation media as well)

    One other peice of hardware was changed. The GPU was shifted from an old AMD Radeon card to a cheap Nvidia card (Geforce 730) as the former was dead. However I don't see how that can be related to the ramdisk given that video output is working fine

    [TUTORIAL] [Boot] Troubleshooting - verbose output

    I tried this, but it made no difference. Loading the kernel still don't produce more output. Also on a slightly related note is there something I can do to make the process that creates the initial ramdisk throw out more information about what is happening?

    Debugging boot issues (with the installation media as well)

    Hi I just swapped my motherboard and CPU (from a second gen Ryzen on a B350, with an up to date BIOS, to a third gen on a B550 motherboard) and I was expecting some boot issues, but I'm struggling to see exactly what fails during boot. I tried following this guide...

    LVM volume mounts fine after startup, but not before

    I found a possible solution in the suse support forums. I might try it later. That said it would be good to have verified that the issue here is actually just a matter of the second lvm volume not being "available" soon enough when the deamon that mounts filesystems is attempting to mount it. So...

    LVM volume mounts fine after startup, but not before

    Hi I recently replaced the USB drive I'm running proxmox from with a much larger one. So I set aside a bit of space on the new one for ISO files by adding a new lvm thin volume inside the main lvm volume. However when i try to mount this during boot it fails. Since everything, including my...

    Proxmox says my bridge is up but the VM's claim the network interface tied to the bridge is down. What did i screw up?

    There is DHCP on the network. It works just fine through vmbr0 which is connected to the same switch via the 1gb nic integrated on the motherboard. That said if setting a static IP forces the interface to be up I can always try that as well =)

    Proxmox says my bridge is up but the VM's claim the network interface tied to the bridge is down. What did i screw up?

    I'll give it a go when I get back home, but I think the system tried to bring up the connection before it went down. As I am new to virtual switches is it common if a connection is available but no IP is forthcoming via DHCP for the client, in this case CentOS, to essentially list a VirtIO...

    Proxmox says my bridge is up but the VM's claim the network interface tied to the bridge is down. What did i screw up?

    Hi I recently installed a new 10gb nic in my server and wanted to run all VM's through it and keep the onboard interface for the proxmox web-ui only. To do this I added a new bridge and tied the VirtIO adapters my virtual machines were using to this new bridge. Proxmox says the bridge is up, the...
