6.2-1 frozen on boot screen hci0: failed to open default fw file: intel/ibt-hw-37.8bseq

I am trying to install Proxmox 6.2-1 on a Dell Inspiron 14 Gaming 7466. Anytime I boot from a flash drive the boot screen stops at this:



Having read other posts, I believe I need to follow this thread (https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/nuc-drivers-for-intel-ac-9462-wireless.42427/):

This is my first time with Linux and I am having a difficult time understanding where or how to update the list of available packages and install the firmware-iwlwifi package. Where would i do this? Do I need to plug my flashdrive into another computer and change this inside of the flashed file?

Thank you for any patience given to this newbie.

Hi,

Also, am I correct to assume the issue here are the wireless drivers?

Yes, this is correct.

I would recommend you to install Proxmox VE on top of Debian [1]
