Proxmox 5 iso installation and network

[Baptiste M]

Hi,

On my online.net server (dedibox ENT 2016 SSD), I would like to install proxmox via the virtual console provided by the Dell iDrac KVM on IP.

A the beginning of the installer, it seems to call a DHCP request. At the same moment, I lost the access to the console. When I return, virtual media is disconnected and the installer dead.

The proxmox 4.4 installer doesn't have the problem, and it shows a screen to setup IP.

Is there a boot option to configure a static IP? Or to manually deal with the installer IP.

Thanks,

PVE 4.4 also does dhcp (but only on eth0, PVE 5 does it on all interfaces). which iso did you use exactly?

proxmox-ve_5.1-3.iso
Ok, If DHCP is done on all interfaces, I am not astonished that it disable my console.
What can I do ?
How can I tell the installer to only use eth0 (actually eno3 with new kernel )

the (access to the) iKVM console should be unaffected by anything we do in the installer, as the iKVM/iLO/IPMI network stack is not accessable from the host (at least not directly).
