Hello everyone, I’m trying to set up a portable Windows 11 24H2 VM on Proxmox VE 8.4, using HDDs for storage, but I’m running into boot problems. I’d really appreciate any advice or insights you could share! Here’s what’s happening: With Seabios: The Windows installer gives the error: "This...

Hallo, ich habe ein Problem bzgl. der Konfiguration einer VM in Proxmox. Ich möchte gerne einen Server von einem bestehenden Stand-Alone System in einer Proxmox VM fortführen. Die Hardware ist nicht Windows11 tauglich und ich habe neue Hardware angeschafft, Nun möchte ich die Gunst der Stunde...

Greetings. I've got a few OVMF firmware VMs with hardware serial ports being passed through (ttyS) mostly successfully. The issue I am running into is when the VM reboots it outputs to the serial port and receives responses causing the VM to enter various menus. I think I've found the settings...

Hello dear hive mind! I am comming to you to seek your wisdom because I surely do not know the solutions to my problem. I am currently working on PCIe pass through for some old Windows OSes (XP, vista, 7, 8.1) and working along some instructions I found on Youtube, Reddit and elswhere. Before...

I have a VM using GPU passthrough - and it works fine. I can see the GPU inside the VM and interact with it generally. In an effort to use this GPU as my primary display, I need to _disable_ the implicit video device that Proxmox firmware supplies to the VM, so I changed `Hardware` > `Display` =...

Hiya! I'm trying to edit the Proxmox boot logo just for fun for my personal proxmox server. I'm watching that the proxmox OVMF firmware its located here: /usr/share/kvm/OVMF_CODE-pure-efi.fd I made a backup, and I copy that to my local machine in order to edit. Then I opened with UEFITool. And...

I'm spawning an ubuntu vm from the template built from newest 24.04 image here, configs at the end of the post: https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/noble/currentnobleserver-cloudimg-amd64.img On first boot of the vm it get's stuck for a minute or two at 2.087525 s with CPU usage practically zero...

Hello, I am trying to create a cloud-init template for my VMs. I am on Proxmox VE 8.1.5. I am able to create the template, but when I clone it and attempt to start the clone, the cloud-init process never gets kicked off during boot (no ssh keys are generated, and ultimately I get a startup...

I am currently in the process of choosing settings for my new VM Templates and one thing i am still not sure about is if i should use Seabios or OVMF as my new standard. Already did some research and saw the stuff / problems regarding pcie passthrough with seabios and i am aware that i might...

We're taking a little break in our series "GPU/PCI Passthrough on Proxmox", I must say that the fourth article on OpenBSD gave me a hard time. So I thought it was an opportunity to take stock of the different methods of installing OpenBSD on our favorite hypervisor. We will consider different...

I have an active Ubuntu server 22 VM that I want to pass through a GPU (p2000) for hardware acceleration. Now when I set up this VM a long time ago I used the default machine (i440fx) and boot type (SeaBIOS), but the docs don't recommend those options for passthrough. The machine type was...

Proxmox Version: 7.4-3 I am trying to install Arch Linux via the official cloud image, which lists Proxmox as a tested provider: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_Linux_on_a_VPS The page above details the Proxmox installation process in the table, with a link to the cloud image being...

Hello everyone I tested whether I could migrate VMs from PVE 6.4-13 to PVE 7.0-11, using backup and restore, which unfortunately fails. Both PVEs share an equal setup except for their Proxmox version, have an LVM thin pooled storage, were installed from Debian (Buster, Bullseye, respectively)...

Dear Proxmox Community, last night I had to migrate a Physical Windows Server 2012 R2 x64 UEFI/GPT Server to Proxmxo VE 7 (for a customer, we already use Proxmox VE Enterprise). I tried many different things but in the end the virtual Windows did not start. Here's what I tried Installed...

Hey all, I'm having trouble even getting a Windows 10 ISO to boot with OVMF - not even trying to setup anything like PCIe passthrough right now. The ISO boots fine on a SeaBIOS VM so I'm sure it's not the problem, but I'll still try a different ISO when I get the chance. On boot (after Proxmox...

Hello, I was trying to do GPU passthrough but I ran into a larger issue along the way. Whenever I try to use OVMF instead of SeaBIOS, I get the error "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)." It doesn't matter what settings I use or what guest I'm trying to use (I've tried both Ubuntu 18.04...

Hi! I'm trying to recreate one of my windows templates which used the OVMF bios with a set resolution of 1920x1080. The problem I'm having with this new VM is after I set the resolution to 1920x1080 from within the bios it resets back to 800x600 on boot. If I check the bios the resolution says...

Ive just configured my SAN to run as a PVE node/storage appliance with ZFS over iSCSI as a LIO target. NFS and iSCSI over RDMA is working well with the exception of adding EFI disks to a VM. Copying EFI vars image failed: command '/usr/bin/qemu-img convert -n -f raw -O raw...

Ive installed a couple open solaris distributions including openindiana and omnios both installing a UEFI bootloader. But OVMF on proxmox reports after install that it is not found. Changing to SeaBIOS does boot. I tried on both PVE 6 and PVE 5.4 with the same results: no UEFI boot to any...

Hallo zusammen, gestern Abend meinen PVE Host aktualisiert. Alle VMs fein säuberlich heruntergefahren die Repositories aktualisiert, Upgrade, Host Neustart, super. Nach dem Neustart scheint alles wie immer. Alle VMs starten außer eine. Diese hat einen SATA Controller durchgereicht bekommen...
