Black screen on Proxmox 7.2 install

[zageyiff]

I found a work around. When you go to install - select the advanced option, then install debug mode. It stops twice giving you a chance to change things.. dont.. just control+d.. on the second one it sets 1024X768 and the screen stays on for the install.

I had the same issue with proxmox installer 7.3-1, and this solved my issue

I had the same issue with proxmox installer 7.3-1, and this solved my issue

I have a Dell 9020 SFF with an i7 4770 with AMD 8490 OEM PCI-E card. I have the same issue with 7.3-1. My UEFI, Ventoy and ProxMox install screen are squished on a 1080p monitor.

I am using a DVI to HDMI adapter so I am not sure this is adding issues on top. I tried the control-d but it only stops one time and when I control-d it blacks the screen.

Im just the beginner with proxmox/linux stuff so go easy on me if I say something stupid
I had problem installing Proxmox on my computer too, old Alienware Alpha with GeForce GTX 860M. After a lot of research and trying diffrent things finally steps from this website helped:

Because I have 4k TV connected to this computer I had to change

Modes     "1024x768"

to 4k resolution and it work, I was able to finish installation process.
Maybe this will help you.

Hi, I am also having this issue with 7.3. Where do you make the resolution code change?

Alas even in debug mode I get a black screen before it asks me anyting. I don't get any options to make any changes.

I saw on the boot in it said something about Nvidia drivers not able to set the pcie region (or something similar it went fast) so I got around this by going into the bios and forcing the PCIe mode to gen 3 and it worked fine for me.

Hi, I am having the same problem, proxmox installer gives me a black screen, I installed Debian and proxmox on top of it, and its works, but I can't access proxmox directly from the PC, after installing proxmox and restarting it got the black screen again
I have intel 12 gen, so it's a new PC, maybe i need drivers for intel graphics?

A bit of a similar situation here. Install for 7-4.1 here could not proceed on a B550-HDV with Ryzen 5600g. Always blocked on a black screen during the installation process. the machine locked up.
Finally reverted to using another P10S-WS and i3-7100 to install on an NVME drive. Moved the drive to the B550-HDV, but would not boot and give a black screen and lockup the machine.

Finally what somewhat worked :

1. setting BIOS options disable CSM, enable IOMMU
2. passing command line parameters: by pressing 'e' when in the grub boot menu (at the end of line starting with linux /... )

iommu=soft pci=noats acpi=off

and adding it to apply in grub.conf to make it persistent

It's possible that applying the parameters during installation might also work, but have not tried yet.
