[SOLVED] New VM Not Starting Troubleshooting Via CLI

I installed Proxmox on a workstation in VirtualBox. I then installed both the Router OS and Ubuntu after modifying them as per

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Serial_Terminal

from terminal. So the install media is fine. This is what I meant by it definitely boots and installs. I simulated the installation process that I'm trying to do now on a bare metal Proxmox install i.e. prod.

I decided to try to install another VM with Ubuntu without any fancy PCIe passthrough shenanigans. Same issue. Times out after 300 seconds.

This was me trying to install using no PCIe passthrough and slightly different settings and different OS to see if that was the issue. This was on bare metal Proxmox. Same as what I was doing in the first post with the Router OS. Just trying different things to see if there's any patterns.

Well, ZFS wasn't the problem. Hmm...
At least now I can see the error after just 10 seconds rather than waiting for 5 mins with the qm set command rather than editing the .cfg.
