Hello, I have a 2008 Mac Pro populated with 6 4TB disks. I can boot the Proxmox installer from both USB flashdrive and USB CD Drive.
I cannot access the installer unless I pass the acpi=false flag to Grub. After that, the installer starts fine.
During installation, I configure the installation location to be a ZFS RAID10 pool created from my 6 disks. After installation succeeds, I reboot the computer, remove the USB device, and let the Mac Pro boot.
After about a minute it times out because it cannot find the boot device and simply flashes a folder with a question mark on it. At first I thought this was possibly occurring during the installation of GRUB due to my flash drive throwing off the _sd#_ order. However, after burning a CD, the issue still persists.
Holding down Option doesn't show any available boot disks. Like it normally would if a USB Flashdrive were inserted, for example.
There is at least 1 other instance of a person installing Proxmox on a 2008 Mac Pro. But he did so on a single drive. I cannot link to this thread due to user restrictions, but a google search of "proxmox 2008 mac pro" will yield the relevant result.
Any idea what could be happening here?
EDIT: Sorry for the lousy title. I meant to put that there as a placeholder and come back to it and forgot. And it doesn't appear that I'm able to edit it.
