My old PVE5.x home server died. I moved the zfs mirror it had to another old pc I had laying around. I added a blank disk to install to and tried installing pve (5,6 &7) but couldn't install due to video issues. V8 installed, so I got passed the video hurtle. I was able to import the pool and...

Thank you for the configuration location. This is the same script as above. I just don't know anything the ticketing in it. How do I make it not expire?

I am trying to copy the virtual disk that was created by PVE floor a VM. I'm bored off a Ubuntu live cd, and I would like to copy the disk image to an external drive. I can see the volumes, but I'd like to copy the image as a single file. How can I do that? I'm used to the image on the old...

Thank you! I was able to get it. Thank you so much!

How to mount a disk image (/dev/pve/vm-100-disk-1 or /dev/mapper/pve-vm--100--disk--1) as rw to work on files inside it when booting from liveCD?
