    Proxmox VE 5.3 installer overwriting existing EFI boot variables

    It wouldn't, but by using the fallback boot loader (efi/boot/BOOTx64.EFI), the bios will automatically make a bootable entry in bios, and you can ignore the proxmox variable and select whatever disk you want to boot from the list of automatically created fallback boot loaders.

    Proxmox VE 5.3 installer overwriting existing EFI boot variables

    perhaps do a grub-install --removable on both and control the boot order in bios.

    beelink X55 - Install won't start!

    Had this issue with a J4105 Gemini Lake part. Perhaps it's the same as the X55's J5005 Gemini Lake part? http://rob.com/porteus/ProxmoxH2.iso is a 642Meg Proxmox VE 5.3 install image that works on the Gemini Lake and Coffee Lake systems I own in uEFI mode. It boots and runs normally, but...

    Installer gives black screen after GRUB

    Ran into this issue with a Gemini Lake (j4105) part but this time it didn't have a legacy boot option to fall back on. The grub2 in Ubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish) 2.02dfsg1-5ubuntu8 worked so this might be a recent intel graphics issue with grub2. http://rob.com/porteus/ProxmoxH2.iso is a...

    Booting a ZFS root file system via uEFI

    Sometimes to get the ZFS root file system the way we want requires an install in legacy mode and conversion to uEFI mode, perhaps because of: Installer creates an undesirable partition table Installer can't find cdrom image after grub2 load hardware requires uEFI bios to initialize (emmc)...

    Installer gives black screen after GRUB

    I also had this issue, and the fix for the Coffee Lake NUC is to turn on the Legacy Boot option in BIOS.

    ZFS boot issue

    Does the emergency boot from the install cd bring it up normaly? Does pointing the legacy boot to the other disk make a difference? (grub-install for fun too) Does turning on uEFI along with Legacy boot help your MB bios find the Legacy boot partition?

    ProxMox 5.1 ZFS Fresh Installation unable to Boot due to grub

    Does the emergency boot from the install cd bring it up normaly? Does pointing the legacy boot to one of the other three disks make a difference? (grub-install on all 4 again for fun too) Does turning on uEFI along with Legacy boot help your MB bios find the Legacy boot partition?

    Problem with consistent high io load (~12%) on node in CEPH cluster

    on the node with the high IO wait, type: `dmesg | grep libceph` I've seen stack traces like you shared, perhaps the root error is: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/ceph-snapshot-lxc-backup-hanging.39689/

    Ceph snapshot lxc backup hanging

    hmm, had a hang with a "stopped" backup, so its not a /dev/rbd1 mounting issue. I'm going to stop rotating snapshots and remove them all and move back to a snapshot mode for backup. [ 5621.020944] libceph: get_reply osd2 tid 333933 data 933888 > preallocated 131072, skipping

    Ceph snapshot lxc backup hanging

    Ah, it seems to be related to RBD_MAX_SNAP_COUNT as I rotate between 14 snapshots in this lxc. This is fewer than the 510 snapshots per image as stated below, but likely related. http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/16630#note-13

    Ceph snapshot lxc backup hanging

    I've had a number of stuck backup jobs of lxc containers using a ceph snapshot as a source. Have you noticed this too? Its been happening for awhile: While it looks like a disk errors, and this home cluster has a bunch of old junk computers it, the failures follow OSDs where the backup is...

    Fail at boot on a clear Proxmox 5.1.3 installation

    I know it sounds funny, but turn on both legacy and uEFI boot options in your BIOS. Proxmox will boot via the legacy partition, but the devices will be enumerated correctly. (the copy of /etc/zfs/zpool.cache in /boot/initrd.img* isn't using /dev/disk/by-id/* so it can't find the pool as the...
