HI,

Try to remove the iso from your virtual cd-rom. Because this iso file do not exist on the target, te resuls is migration abort

Good luck/Bafta !

hey
Thanks for the tip, but I already did that and then got the error above

This could be a bug in the version you have installed. Please upgrade to the latest version of 6.x and try again. And you should even upgrade to 7.x, because version 6 is end-of-life since almost a year and doesn't receive any (security) updates from Proxmox anymore: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_6.x_to_7.0

In fact, I had already tried to install version 7.4 on my server, however, an error appears.
Attached the photo of the error

Sounds like there could be an issue with the BIOS. Did you try to enable another scaling driver in BIOS settings? Do you have the latest BIOS update installed?

What you could also try is to install on top of Debian: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_11_Bullseye
But no guarantees that the error would not re-appear when booting the Proxmox VE kernel. But maybe it's a kernel issue only present in the default kernel, so you could try using the opt-in kernel when installing on top of Debian instead: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/opt-in-linux-6-2-kernel-for-proxmox-ve-7-x-available.124189
