Hi all,
I tried moving a Centos 6 VM from Citrix XenServer v6.5 to Proxmox v7.1-10, but the VM is getting stuck after the GRUB menu.

I regenerated initramfs, but the VM is still hanging. I also tried removing the "quiet" kernel options, but that didn't help (not pictured here).
It boots fine on the Citrix hypervisor. I've never had an issue like this during Xen->PVE migrations on Centos 7 with the same process.
Does anyone know anything about this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

After GRUB menu, where it get's stuck. Memory and CPU usage for the VM skyrockets at this stage.

I removed the "rhgb quiet rhgb quiet" lines from grub and rebooted. It's hanging on "Probing EDD (edd=off to disable)... ok".

I tried disabling EDD by adding edd=off to the end of the kernel grub entry, now I'm getting a blank screen again when I try to boot.
 
Try to remove or change console=hvc0
