I have a basic home setup and am going to swap out a few hard drives (1TB’s) used for media and file backup for a single larger disk (8TB). Before I have always passed the disks through to Win VMs, logic being if lost the Proxmox OS I could just boot the disks up in another windows box and be...

I ended up doing a clean install of proxmox 5.0, I was running an older version and figured it was time. I don't think the version was the issue but it worked this time. I probably had some setting wrong before. Re-read and I am pretty sure GPU pass through for using the accelerated graphics...

I am trying to figure out a way to remotely connect to an android Bluetooth device that only has an android app. Say it’s a Bluetooth thermometer. One solution is to buy a cheap android device like an old tablet and remotely connect to it, but that cost money. Since I already have Proxmox setup...

Thanks udo I always thought if it was not detected in the bios it wouldn’t work in the OS. set to ahci with "not detected" in the bios and booted proxmox. had an "hard drive error press f1" type message Also gave more errors after proxmox boot menu select. It only flashed for a second then went...

Hi, I just got a new to me motherboard for my home setup and of course something doesn’t work. So I have two hard drives, sata1 - Samsung 1tb Proxmox sata2 - WD 2tb media server storage pass through The problem is the WD drive is not recognized in the bios. I have tried everything but a...

Thanks guys for taking the time. Really appreciate the help!

Thanks Udo I think I got the .mount file part down now. I still have to mount the disk to the proxmox host and then bind mount that to the container. Right? Is there somewhere I could put the code to mount the disk to the host? So if I restart the physical box it will auto mount the disk?

Thanks! I didn’t get the part about mounting it first to the host then the container. Thought I could just mount it straight there. I am assuming there is a startup file or something where I can put the commands for mounting my disk to the host so I don’t have to do it every restart. Could you...

Hi, I am trying to set up a little media server for my music. I am having troubles figuring out how to mount a second disk to my container. I have tried doing a mount --bind setup but without the --bind and it works but I get problems permissions. So is this the right way to set it up? It is...

Ok so I know this is a total NOOB question, but whenever I assume things it always bits me back. Soon I will have an extra Intel quad core that I am hoping to repurpose in my proxmox box. Changing from a dual 2.8ghz to a quad 2.4ghz. My question is would I have to reinstall proxmox and the...

Hey, Just a quick update. Finally got some more ram and reinstalled WHS11. 3gb RAM 200gb Hard drive 2 cores Installed the Hard drive as raw, VIRTIO along with adding another NTFS disk I had all my media on. Set the NIC to e1000. So far after a few test transfers of about 1gb files It...

Sigh... I can’t even claim that it was hidden deep in the release notes. It’s right there in bullets. System requirements, 1.4 CPU, 2gbRam, 160gb Hd. Probably should have paid more attention to that part huh. Well Thanks for pointing that out fnu!! I was right about to give up. I guess I just...

Hey Guys, So I am new to Proxmox and was trying to get some guests installed but for some reason I can’t seem to get Windows Home Server 11 RC installed. Iam pretty sure it’s based of server 2008 r2. First try it was a corrupted ISO,re downloaded and now it stops at the hard drive part. That...

Hey guys, So I have a spare desktop that I have been using as a Windows Home Server box for a while now but the software is up and I was thinking about repurposing it. I was thinking about loading Proxmox on to it so I could explore around with some other OS but first I have a few questions. How...
