I am getting this error on a fresh install on my Ryzen 7 1700 system. We are using an M.2 Drive for the hard drive.

Any thoughts on this one??

I have the exact same setup (Ryzen 1700) and had the exact same error.

I upgraded Proxmox packages last night (using the standard GUI) and the process failed for some reason. The GUI showed "no updates available".

Going into the shell of the host computer I ran "apt upgrade" and the upgrade process stopped and mentioned that "dpkg --configure -a" would have to be used to fix the interrupted installation.

After I ran the command, I rebooted and everything was back up and running

Hopefully it helps!
