Hi, I'm newbie with Proxmox but I just would like to be able to install a virtual machine just by using netinstall iso of linux distro (I don't want to have to transfer big complete iso images on my server so netinstall iso are smaller).
When I watch my network configuration, I have eth0 which is down and vmbr0 that is up and have the public ip of my server (I'm with a dedicated server Kimsufi by OVH provider)
you'll find a screenshot of my actual configuration here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67640757/ProxMox001.jpg
So when I try to install, the vm doesn't succceed to reech the URL of Debian or Centos repositories because first DHCP server is not found.

What must I do to succeed in my try of installing?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards
 
Hello

CT is a good option if you have a proper template.

In other cases a kvm machine can be set up as follows:

- create a VM with:

* only one network card with option "NAT" (recommend a second only after install)

* HD of your choice

* CD drive which contains "netinstall"-iso

- start the new vm

- open a console and install the OS with the usual dialogue


Note: This VM has access to network via NAT/DHCP server 10.0.2.2 but with some restrictions (e.g. ping does not work)

Kind regards

Mr.Holmes
