Hey guys, I just updated the BIOS and Proxmox to the latest version for each, and wanted to tackle one more issue. I've been hosting a couple network drives on my Proxmox host, basically just a network directory for music and one for torrents. I play music SOMETIMES from this directory, but...

It is 2GB, which has worked on other VMs before. I'm just typing in max, is this bad?

I've never had a problem installing Ubuntu VMs before on Proxmox, but today I tried spinning another one up and it is giving me an error when it comes to the bootloader. Specifically it says: An installation step failed. You can try to run the failing item again from the menu, or skip it and...

I shared a couple folders over my network via Samba in my host. Now my Windows PC can find them just by typing "\\10.0.0.250\Movies" but I can't for the life of me find it on an Ubuntu VM. Do you know how I can go about this because I've been working on it for a couple days, tried a lot of the...

I ended up escaping out but still got some output. First this is my lsblk -l: root@chrispychris:~# lsblk -l NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 931.5G 0 disk sda1 8:1 0 1007K 0 part sda2 8:2 0...

I installed my Proxmox on a single SSD. I have to drives in my server that were RAIDed through OMV but I broke everything, so I am trying to go the more manual route this time and mount them via MDADM. When I apt-get install mdadm, it's asking me MD arrays needed for root file system, the...

I tried running apt-get update and got an error. I looked around and added to my source list the non enterprise line and then commented out the enterprise list. I'm still not getting success. Does anyone know about this? I never had a problem with this on my previous host install. Thanks, Chris

Cool, I've found an article on the mdadm, so when I get up and running again I will check that out. Okay, I shrank it, but now I cannot mount it again and when I rebooted Proxmox I can't hit the web interface or anything. Seems like I broke something pretty good, but I'm not sure if I should...

Bear with me, I'm really new to this :/. Here is what I'm thinking then: Okay, so I will shut down Proxmox and turn off my entire server. Then I will boot from an Ubuntu ISO via USB, then not install it, but run a live version or whatever it says there. Then within that Ubuntu do I have access...

Awesome, so someone else told me this last night. Will I need to shut down all Proxmox services to free up anything that may be using this area: sda 8:0 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 1007K 0 part ├─sda2 8:2 0 127M 0 part └─sda3 8:3 0 931.4G 0 part ├─pve-root 252:0 0 96G 0 lvm / ├─pve-swap 252:1 0...

Okay, I was told that since sda3 is a LVM setup, I would have to reinstall Proxmox and use much less for the templates and stuff. Is there a way I can do this without reinstalling Proxmox? I had help doing it the first time and that was a while ago, I'm not sure I'm experienced enough to just...

Okay I guess I've changed my mind. I am going to try and mount to fstab in my host and then share that via ext4? That way both Windows and Linux can access it and all that. I'm just having trouble figuring out what drives are alright used by OMV using "lsblk" and "blkid". I want to mount some...

I'm a total noob here, and I have been struggling to figure this out for a while and it's starting to really frustrate me and keep me from progressing. I am able to mount a shared folder on my network through fstab, but how in the world do I mount a drive with say a 1GB worth of space from my...
