[TUTORIAL] How to run PVE 7 on a Raspberry Pi

[cloubier]

I think it would work if there was a way to pass-through the host PCie bus, but it is only possible if the host CPU has an IOMMU that is only present on AMD-V or Intel-VT (?) I'm not sure, but that's my explanation from what I've read on the internet ...

I'm trying to get ConBeeII working on a Debian 11.2 arm64 VM on the Pi, but I can't get passthrough to work, it doesn't show any other USB device in the VM either.

Hi, i have the same problem. Did you find a solution ?

Has anybody successfully installed + running Windows 11 for ARM64 as VM on Pimox 7?

Thanks very much for this excellent tutorial,,,, Pimox7 was installed on RPi4 with no issue and is now added to Datacenter Cluster.
Only issue is opening the screen to create a ZFS the following error was received...

command '/sbin/zpool list -HpPLo name,size,alloc,free,frag,dedup,health' failed: exit code 1 (500)

Did I miss something in the tutorial about ZFS...?

Hello everyone !

Thanks for the guide, i´ve got Proxmox running on Nanopi R4S, but i couldn't find or make any VM or CT suitable for it.

Any suggestion on this ?

Is there a chance to get pve-zsync package for pimox7? ZFS works for me and I want to easily sync VMs between my 2 RPI4s.

Hi everyone, great tutorial. I'm currently trying to deploy containers to my RBD Storage (Ceph) on PIMOX7, but I don't really get it to work. I've read something about it and I think i have to customize my kernel-. Is that right? Can some one help me to get this done. I've already tried to crosscompile my own optimized kernel but it doesn't work with it.

I'm facing the same issue. Would love to use RBD disks for VMs/CTs

I installed on my pi4B, and it messed up my home assistant. But no worry. I have HA config backup.
My problem is the fact that now 2 services are failing:
```
root@hass:/home/pi# systemctl --state=failed
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION
● apparmor.service loaded failed failed Load AppArmor profiles
● zfs-load-module.service loaded failed failed Install ZFS kernel module

LOAD = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.
2 loaded units listed.

It would be nice to at least get Pimox to run. The only issue so far is this missing module.

But why is it that everything it installs now makes AppArmor to fail? Is this something someone has encountered? Is there someone running Pimox and Home Assistant Supervised on a RPI4B?


Thanks in advance.
