Seems I stopped getting emails about replies to this so missed the last few. Thanks all for your input. I will leave the repos as they are forget about disabling any that I deem as unnecessary. As for ZFS, without going too much into the 'why?', I need to ensure that ZFS is never allowed, at any...

Yeah I've looked into the official definitions of what it is, but it isn't the easiest language to understand. I assume that since the 'non-free' repo (not 'non-free-firmware) is not included in Proxmox, that it is not needed. But the above quote seems to suggest that there might be some...

Well spotted! If the 'non-free-firmware' repo is going to be added in future versions, then I'll simple leave it as it is. That makes the whole setup much simpler. Still not sure on the 'contrib' repo, but I can do more research on that myself to see whether it's best to leave that enabled or to...

I understand that in some cases it's needed, as in absolutely required for the hardware to work, whereas in my case (AMD CPU + iGPU and Realtek NIC) I was able to boot the system without it enabled. The 'pve-firmware' contained the firmware for the devices that were complaining when I installed...

Thanks @LnxBil I'm installing Debian via a preseed, and disabling the 'non-free-firmware' isn't a trivial task (imo), and though the system did boot in my case, I'm sure it's not a recommended way to go about things. Therefore, my idea is to keep it enabled during install and then immediately...

I'm installing Proxmox on top of Debian, for reasons, and have been maybe a little obsessive with making the install match the official installer as much as possible. I notice that when using the official installer that it doesn't include the 'non-free-firmware' repo, I assume because Proxmox...

Thanks! With several resolutions in this thread that seemed to work for some and not for others, I used this and the problem looks to be resolved.

Yes, I can see this happening. It's a tough one, since I'm a privacy and security advocate, so this is my way to ensure that what is provided can be trusted (if you want something done, do it yourself). The main point of the website will be to provide detailed tutorials on how to set up a server...

Hi all, Have been using Proxmox for a couple years now, and it's safe to say I love it. I'm most definitely not a pro when it comes to configuring it, so was looking for advice on how to best setup my system, taking into account the use case and the hardware I have. Right now, I have a Dell...

Ah, I see. That explains a lot! I am somewhat familiar with virtual hosts, but I thought that the app I'm looking to install can only have one instance per server, and I didn't have any other idea than to install on two separate hosts. Turns out that there's a tool to deploy the app in Docker...

Hi all. I've spend the day trying to get this set-up to no avail. The examples I've found online so far seem geared towards slightly different use cases than my own, which could be the cause of this. I've resorted to starting again from scratch, with a working PVE host. Now, as the title...
