Hi,

it seems to try to the Nvidia GPU driver, as can be seen from the nvidiafb entry in the loading drivers: line. I guess you have such a GPU installed in the system?
Esp. Nvidia drivers are known to behave badly, unfortunately that's a problem with the green company.

You can try setting the nomodeset parameter - that normally always solves this problem: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#nomodeset_kernel_param

Otherwise - if that doesn't work for some reason - you can also install stock Debian 12 and then Proxmox VE on top of it: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_12_Bookworm
Or try our relatively new unattended installation option: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Automated_Installation
 
Please just mark the thread as solved by editing the first post - there should be a dropdown near the title field.

This helps other people with the same problem to more easily find this thread in the future! :)
