Hello,
I just upgraded my CPU to have more core. To do this I had to do a BIOS update.
That's the only thing I did, before it worked really well.

Since that time, I was no longer able to boot on my proxmox and it gave me the error "/dev/mapper/pve-root: clean, X / X files, X / X blocks". I tried to let it run for a full day to see what it would do and got nothing.

So finally I left on a brand new dedicated boot drive and my others that I had before will serve as storage.
(1tb nvme + 500gb ssd)
+
240gb ssd (new boot drive)
Now, I got 2 /dev/pve, the new one and the old one.

Small recap.
1 Mail server on old /dev/pve/ (backup, but I don't know where it go).
Many server on /dev/Timmy/

How do I find all my machines without losing anything?
I'm afraid to map my drives to proxmox by risk that erases them.
I tried copying the vm-10X-disk-0, but it was 64kb each. Does that mean that my data is somewhere else?

Any idea how possible can I have my VM back again ?

Thx in advance ! (Sorry for my bad english, I'm french).
