[SOLVED] can't install any vms

[princesaharan]

Hello,

I have Proxmox install on intel nuc5i5MYHE it has i5 process and 8 gb ram and proxmox is install on a 256gb m.2 ssd.

I have also enabled in the bios VTX and VTD

I have been facing issue installing VMs, can't install any vms from ios.

for example below is the error I am getting when installing Linux mint


As a troubleshooting. I have reinstalled proxmox on a new 256gb m.2 ssd and downloaded fresh copy of all ios that i want to install but still wont work.

On the other hand containers have no issues.

Any advice.

Regards,
Prince

I guess its the same problem you described in the other thread. You get IO errors and stuff can't be read/written to disk. you should check that your SSD isn't faulty. Or where these IO errors come from.

How much vdisk space and memory do you give those VMs?

How much vdisk space and memory do you give those VMs?

3 core, 50 gb of disk space.

3 core, 50 gb of disk space.

Wanted to know how much memory, not cores.
Anyway, I only wanted to mention, not to give too less resources to the VM. Have seen installation failures, where people gave the VM way too less memory and/or vdisk space.

Found the issue by myself, it was my faulty ram and after changing that everything worked perfect.
