I was using https://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ from USB stick to boot the Proxmox 5. I think the installer was not seeing the disk at the time so I probably installed Proxmox in a different computer and then moved it in the new one.. and booting worked with the help of eEFInd,
Now two years later I upgraded my whole cluster to version 6. I noticed that on this node I was getting unknown status for all CTs and no stats. The reason was that it was using the older 4.5 kernel. There is a config file in /boot/refind.conf that lists only a single kernel. That file is on the ZFS pool not the stick.
Instead of adding an item I replaced it with the new kernel. All fine, just that there is an error on boot, ZFS ARC is having a bad value (some illegal character at the end after the digits). I was probably not running 'update-initramfs -u' to apply ZFS tweaks and even after few upgrades I was still using older kernel.
Now the question is.. how to edit that file /boot/refind.conf ? I can put the disk in a different proxmox box if it is easier that way. I want to boot in the older kernel, fix the ZFS config file, update-initramfs and then try kernel 5.4 again.
Any other ideas how to fix this or eventually totally forget the stick would be great.
