Impossible te create OpenVZ virtual environemnt on proxmox VE 1.9

[Uncle Buzz]

Hi !

I try to setup a NAS with proxmox on an AMD zacate (motherboard ASUS E35M1-I DELUXE) with 4GB of RAM and since I need raid software and LVM to manage the fileserver, I did not installed promox from ISO but did a simple installation of debian squezze 64 bit with raid and LVM, then I installed proxmox VE 1.9 with the command

aptitude install proxmox-ve-2.6.32

But I'm suprised to see on the create page that I only have the option KVM to create my virtual environment and no possibility to choose an OpenVZ template (I have downloaded 2 OpenVZ template on the server) !

root@NAS:~# pveversion -v
pve-manager: 1.9-24 (pve-manager/1.9/6542)
running kernel: 2.6.32-5-amd64
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 1.9-47
pve-kernel-2.6.32-6-pve: 2.6.32-47
qemu-server: 1.1-32
pve-firmware: 1.0-14
libpve-storage-perl: 1.0-19
vncterm: 0.9-2
vzctl: 3.0.29-2pve1
vzdump: 1.2.6-1
vzprocps: 2.0.11-2
vzquota: 3.0.12-3
pve-qemu-kvm: 0.15.0-1
ksm-control-daemon: 1.0-6

Could someone help me to solve this issue, I don't want to use KVM since my config isn't very powerfull and OpenVZ responds to my needs ?

you do not run the proxmox ve kernel (your running kernel: 2.6.32-5-amd64).

make sure you reboot into the proxmox ve kernel (edit /boot/grub/menu.lst)

hum... Now it seems obvious...

But I have any menu.lst, neither in /boot/grub or in any other path... i'll search where is defined the img to use for boot, if you have an idea, i'm listening...

Thanks for your quick reply !

EDIT : Debain squezze use Grub 2 which does'nt use menu.lst but /boot/grub/grub.cfg (upadted with update-grub from file /etc/default/grub)

Proxmox VE 1.9 uses Lenny ONLY. no support for Squeeze, don´t use it, never.

The 2.x series uses Squeeze, currently in beta.
