Hi,

Before I start I want to say, I am a beginner in Proxmox/Linux and I want to use it for learning .

When I Installed Proxmox on a new Computer I got several Errors.



1. Error

Proxmox Installation got stuck at "Starting a root shell on tty3" after a few min this Error appeared "Installation aborted - unable to continue" .

I could solve the Problem with this Guide :


Code:
#$ chmod 1777 /tmp
$ apt update
$ apt upgrade
$ Xorg -configure
$ mv /xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
$ vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf # update Driver -> "fbdev" <-be sure to get all instances in the case of a multi-head card which tripped me up initially.
$ startx

Because I didnt really know where I needed to update "Driver "fbdev" in the text data. I copied "Driver "fbdev"" in bothe Section "Device" .

I hope its right like this.

2. Error


After fixing the first Error, the Proxmox installer finally opened and I could configurate Proxmox. After the massage "Installation successfull!"

I got following Error in the console:

Code:
hostname: Name or service not known
xauth: file//.Xauthority not known
xauth: (stdin):1: bad display name  "proxmox:1" in "add" command

Now I dont know if I put the "Driver "fbdev" wrong in the file and this is causing the 2. Error or the second Error is not connected to the first one...



I would appreciate any help :)
