    That is what I meant with the lost space. Since the drives are specifically for the proxmox OS, and not an sql data base I don t think that this would be a problem. I am aware of that just can t figure out if there will eb a problem of that mixed sector size disk configuration. What I mean is...

    [SOLVED] GPU Passthrough problem with driver installation in Windows 10

    I meant during installation of proxmox if the drive that is going to be installed on has a gpt partition instead of mbr and in the physical machine itself you have setup uefi boot instead of legacy, then the changes you made had to be done in another path not nano /etc/default/grub but...

    Snapshot proxmox installation itself

    Yeah you re right . I just didn t express correctly that is why the misunderstanding between backup - snaphot . Makes sense since snapshot isnt doing images but does create some kind of file in the vzdump path, Yes that is why I am trying to achieve that, Are you talking about the pbs way or...

    Benefits of using uefi intallation for prox instead of bios

    By the way do you know a work around for WARNING: UEFI capsule updates not available or enabled in firmware setup while running fwupdmgr refresh PS Probably needs a new server / pc in order for fwupd to work since I used it in 4 systems with no results. So it is not a big benefit to make...

    Benefits of using uefi intallation for prox instead of bios

    Since I always have the installation on a zfs pool that is a nice thing to have in mind. Of course doesn t take away the headache when you need to replace a disk with a new one in a zfs raid. First you need to make the partitions exact the same (I think there are three) then resilver the correct...
