The error I get is
BdsDxe: failed to load Boot0002 "UEFI QEMU QEMU HARDDISK " from PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1E,0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x0)/Pci(0x5,0x0)/Scsi(0x0,0x0): Not Found

I have tried this https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/linux-vm-dont-start-after-upgrading-to-proxmox-6-2.69718/ and it does not work. It will not show the drive that has the file in it. I believe i'm missing a small EFI drive to access the main drive and this file within the virtual drive. I have also tried this https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/vms-wont-boot-after-upgrade.69440/#post-311422 but my conf file doe not even have the machine parameter in it.


Any other suggestions ? I would really appreciate any help on this one ...
 
Please post:
* the VM config qm config $VMID
* the contents of your '/etc/pve/storage.cfg'
* the output of pveversion -v

also try booting up a live-cd and check the contents of the ESP (a file-listing might help in narrowing this down

set your bootdisk to the correct 'scsi0' instead of the non-existant 'scsi1'
 
OK done;

Still same error
