[SOLVED] Container i386?

[weconnect]

Hello

is there a way to get i386 LXC Containters for Proxmox 6.2?

we need one for a old website that needs 32 bit os.. we dont want to install it in a VM but if we have to then we will to it but containers leave a small footprint so we would like to use it

hi,

yes you can, but we don't have official i386 templates.

check out this site[0] for templates.

select the distro you want and check if they have a 32-bit template there.

ubuntu does for example[1]

download the rootfs.tar.xz, rename it how you like (keep the file extensions) and place it in a storage of your choice (for example /var/lib/vz/template/cache/ for your 'local' PVE storage).

after that is all done, you can go normally to the CT creation wizard and pick the template during setup.
