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...
