I've now ditched this intel mb as despite it having vt-d vt I/O and uefi enable option and tmp its completely useless to test out as a server as it never seems to work as it should. I hoped the q35 chipset would help me experiment with gpu passthrough in proxmox before I decided to splash cash...

I can install catalina but for some reason I cannot install High Sierra. I've tried 3 or 4 different ISO images for High Sierra and they always keep saying they are corrupted and cant be used when i come to the install. They can't all be corrupted! Whats going wrong? Anyone else have this...

There is no csm. I can enable uefi in the bios but it won't boot the usb stick with installer. I've tried using a cd but after install it still doesn't boot even with uefi enabled in bios. Don't understand why enabling uefi seems to make no difference. Must just be a crappy intel mb.

It just says efi variables are not supported on this system.

I've reinstalled and it lists bios boot this time.....but still not booting without rescue

So why is the hdd formatted for gpt automatically with an efi partition, if its installed with legacy bios? Shouldn't it partition as mbr? Why does the usb have to have a hidden efi partition if it can be installed without Uefi? Just trying to get it worked out in my head as with uefi enabled...

Trying to work out now why my mb doesn't seem to boot in uefi mode properly. I have it enabled in the bios so would assume it should then boot proxmox.

I followed that yesterday but it didn't work. I can't remember where it was but it couldn't find something or said it didn't exist when I got to part of the code. I followed it exactly. I gave up in the end as it wasn't turning out as described in the wiki. I've spent way too much time on yrying...

It's an older system. I'm a complete noob at all this code stuff. I can install debian and boot no problem from hdd. I found trying to install proxmox ontop too complicated..when I followed various tuts I always got errors so couldn't get any further.

I finally managed to install Proxmox via Ventoy. It would not boot the usb without Ventoy. Installed. But now same problem, now hdd doesn't boot proxmox. I can only boot via rescue on usb. Is there anyway to somehow add a script or .bat file to get the hdd to boot proxmox?

Trying to follow the guide for installing proxmox on debian but I get stuck here.

It's really strange. The first old socket 775 with g33 chipset had no problem installing proxmox. However, g33 chipset is not compatible with passthrough, so as I'm just experimenting at the moment, I bought a g35 chipset socket 775 mb. It's an intel mb. Thought I would have an easy install as...

Can't understand why debian 11 will install from a USB no problem but proxmox wont. Looks like proxmox uses gpt even though usb is formatted as mbr and that's why bios won't read it as a bootable device. Can proxmox release another install version compatible with systems like mine? I've seen...

Already enabled. Motherboard is an old socket intel 775 JOQ3510J

That's the problem, no mouse or keyboard when set to Uefi no power to usb so can't click install.

Fdisk-

The output of my frisk is the same as the other poster. Something else that happens. If I'm in legacy mode, when the dvd disk spins up it asks me to enter 1 or 2. If I enter 1 the proxmox installer gui appears and I can select install or rescue boot etc. If I change my bios to enable uefi mode...

It's booting in legacy not eufi mode. The only way I can get into proxmox on the hdd is the same as previous poster...with recovery cd/dvd. It listed the same things. I ran the conversion but it still won't boot on its own and it now states there is no gpt and its converting the mbr in memory...

I've just looked at that and tried similar but being a newbie, how do I delete sda1 and 2 and how do I get out of gdisk as it threw me into mbr command.
