Hello Experts,
I am trying out Proxmox first time. I have a Fujitsu RAID1 server, and was trying to wipe clean and replace the server with Proxmox
The installation from a USB goes through perfectly fine, no blocks, and then after it restarts, all I see is a black screen

The order is -
Restart > screens showing loading RAID (can go to LSI screen here) > screen showing loading system (can press F2 to get to BIOS here) > Black screen with a blinking cursor
Seems like grub is wiped out.

I have tried to do the proxmox installation in /dev/sda & then the same in /dev/sdb -- but the outcome is same - black screen

Also, the RAID status now shows as - degraded.
I did a rebuild of the RAID - after which i was showing as "Online" > installed Proxmox once more, and it came back to "degraded"

I tried installing Debian(buster), but I am not even able to complete the installation - for partition creation issues.

Hence the question, what is my next best course of action?


Kindly advice.

thanks
Dee
