Install ProxMox on new hardware

Hi I have a proxmox installe don a I7 cpu.

I think the easiest way to test is to test a live linux cd.
If it works I guess you have a fair change.

I cna not say for sure if it will be workign but then I would try an install.

My Proxmox install is on a minimal Debian.

Hello,

I not want troll but try MSI (i have Z77A-GD65 + I7 + 32 Go DDR and no problem with Proxmox).

I am using MSI motherboards since many years and never problems unlike ASUS motherboards.
 
Proxmox should work fine on ANY motherboard with a Z77 chipset.

We have tested it extensively on several Intel and ASUS motherboards with H67, Q67, Z68 and Q77 chipsets, Core i5-2500K, i7-2600 and i7-3770 processors, with 8, 16, 24 and 32 GB of RAM. All configurations worked fine.

There are two problems that we encountered:

Adaptec / ASUS BIOS problem
ASUS motherboards permanently lose their memory and processor overclock function when a modern Adaptec RAID controller (in our case the 6805E) is plugged into them, so we have to run our ASUS P8Q77 / i7-3770 setup with DDR3-1333 instead of (the otherwise fully supported) DDR3-1600. The Adaptec controller also killed an ASUS Z68 motherboard. Apart from that issue, the controller works fine.

Q77 remote installation problem
If you plan to install Proxmox from a remotely mounted DVD image via Intel AMT, the installation will take a VERY long time (about 1 hour), filling the screen with SATA errors. Fortunately the installs completed successfully every time, but if you are in a hurry use a local DVD drive. This happened on both ASUS and Intel boards, so we suspect it's a Debian issue on the Q77 vPro chipset.
 
I have a Core i7-7700, ASUS H170-PRO RTL after installing proxmox on debian with xfce4 does not start lightdm, installation, reinstallation does not, and accordingly in containers also x-server does not start. I understand this is a problem with the new hardware, will it work in the 5th version?
 
you'd need to find out why lightdm does not start.. (first I would check the journal). X in containers is something that is not really, if you want a full fletched virtual desktop environment, run a VM.
