    1.1 -> 1.5 upgrade failuer

    I had the same problem on a newly installed 1.3 testsystem. So I suspect practicly everyone gets this error(?) Although the fix is easy it might be handy and avoid a lot of questions if the solution (aptitude dist-upgrade) was added to the wiki at the end of "Update a running Proxmox Virtual...

    No cdrom found

    I tried to install PVE on a new server. It boots from cdrom and when it should install it tells me cdrom not found. I moved the cdrom to the secundairy position, it makes no difference. Are there any boot options or other tricks I can do to solve this?

    Weird Mysql problems

    backup fails

    Thanks, Apparently the updatedb's are done now. I let a small container make a backup to clear the mounted snapshot etc: The load however is still high I guess because of the io delays (between 10 and 50%). In syslog I see Could this be the cause of the weird load and io problems? Any...

    Upgrading ProxMox v1.1 to v1.5 doesn't work....

    I'm sure many users have not upgraded yet for just as many reasons. Do I understand right that adding a 1.5 node to the 1.x cluster and migration (without 'online' selected) to that new node works from the older nodes?

    vzquota - Can't open quota file

    I try to understand this quota stuff. I run into this: So I try: "vzquota init xxx" is supposed to work? I solved it by manually editing the config file setting quota to yes, but I can't imagine that this is the proper way?

    Question about USB-drives

    Hi, We use usbdrives for our backups. They almost die more quickly then I can replace them. Sometimes they last 6 months. Yesterday one lasted an hour. I take a new drive plug them in, and do "mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdc1" It starts to partition it etc and thats it. Anything wrong with that method?

    vzquota - Can't open quota file

    Well not that I'm aware off (not exactly certain what it means). But it is running. Will it help if we migrate the container first with quota's off to try and enable them on the new server? The server it is on now has problems with its filesystem.
