Hi all,
I'm just about at my wit's end trying to troubleshoot this issue, so I'm hoping someone here with fresh eyes can see where I'm messing up..
I'm trying to run a VM from a .OVA package exported from XenCenter. This VM is runnning Ubuntu 14.04.6 LTS. I was able to import it into Proxmox fine with qm importdisk, but when trying to start the VM it hangs on "SeaBIOS booting from harddisk" -- like this. What's interesting is that it does give a GNU GRUB menu and it does "see" that Ubuntu exists on that VM, but no matter what version of Ubuntu I select it hangs on that "booting from hard disk" screen. See here:
Troubleshooting I've tried:
1.) Ensured that there are no other disks on this VM.
2.) Tried swapping BIOS from SeaBIOS to OVMF UEFI. This would bring up a new command line interface but there does not appear to be any way to boot from there. Entering <exit> and going to the Boot Manager brings up a few hard disk options, but none of them appear to work properly. See here:
I also did try adding a EFI disk through the web GUI but the same issue occurred. See here:
3.) Changing the machine from i440x to q35. No luck.
4.) Changing Async IO from "io_uring" to "threads." Nothing appeared to change.
Is there anything I'm missing here? I don't think it could be, but could it be an issue with the conversion from a Xen XVA file to an OVA to qcow2 through Proxmox? Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm fairly new to Proxmox as a whole. Thanks!
