Hi,
I am trying to install Proxmox on an 256 GB SD card, the installer doesn't even see the drive. I have tried a 128 GB SD card as well still no joy. Is there any support for this or am I walking outside the lines of normal?
 
Keep in mind that PVE will easily write 30GB per day to that SD card so it might not last long in case you are not using a decent industrial grade SD card with wear leveling and SLC NAND. So in gernal PVE shouldn't be installed on a SD card / pen drive. But there are some hacks to lower the writes like moving stuff to RAM disks, disableing the cluster servives in case you are only using a single node and so on.
