Hello everyone,
I'm new to Proxmox and kind of to Linux. I work with VMWare at work, but recently came across an old tower server and wanted to build something at home. I am trying to understand the guide but failing somewhere. I did run updates first to get to the most current version of 7. I have nothing on this server, so I could do a clean install without loss, but I figure this would be a good time to get more familiar with Linux and Proxmox. Here is the output I see requested in other posts when people are having this problems.
I am working with no subscription right now, but as I get more established would go that route. Without going into great detail, I have tried some things I have seen in the other forum posts but haven't had any luck.
