well I know I have ceph running on all of my Ampere servers but that is not using official proxmox packagesIs there a ceph client package for arm?
Of course i downloaded either iso images and also container templates for arm64 architecture.For LXC Containers on arm you NEED arm container templates, the x86 container templates from proxmox will NOT work
How did you work around the "kvm crashing when using novnc to view the console"I have now spun up arm64 proxmox on a hetzner ampere root server (cpu=80) using this port https://github.com/jiangcuo/Proxmox-Port - with a debian bookwork base and pve8
In the main it works well and will keep it running for my workload.
I have raised two issues that I have found on their github - one is kvm crashing when using novnc to view the console; not sure if this is an upstream issue - I found the segfault is in a library that ships with debian.
The second is the kernel is not built with the br_netfilter module, but inserting that makes the firewall work.
Otherwise I have 10x vms up and running and everything seems stable
I really would love to see an official proxmox distribution for this architecture!

I've tried everything I cannot get a VM to display for nothing...
Which library, how did you fix it? Thanks.
I could not get that to work either, but I did get it to work! A combo of >_ console window + double click the pve name and the serial console comes up for install!I used a spice viewer, but jiancuo has updated libpixman in his repo now and seems solid.
No display at all sounds like the problem I had until I used uefi bios (seabios didn’t work).
These are the settings I have and novnc is working fine with the latest libpixman, and also using mac based spice viewer:
