Hi everyone,

I'm running Proxmox VE and everything works great overall. However, I recently connected a monitor to my server to upgrade the BIOS.
Then Inoticed that after the boot process finishes, the login prompt doesn't appear. Instead, it stays stuck at the screen shown in the attached image.

I've also tried switching to another TTY using Ctrl+Alt+F2 ezc., but that doesn't work either.

Is there something that could be wrong with my setup?
I think, I remember correctly, that after the installation, there was a boot prompt visible. But I'm not 100% sure anymore.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Oh, I figured out where the issue was. My grub file had wrong parameters. It had this line:
Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet intel_iommu=on iommu=pt pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction initcall_blacklist=sysfb_init video=simplefb:off video=vesafb:off video=efifb:off video=vesa:off disable_vga=1 vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 kvm.ignore_msrs=1 modprobe.blacklist=radeon,nouveau,nvidia,nvidiafb,nvidia-gpu,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,i915"

I think, I had followed a tutorial a while ago with passthrought for graphic card. But I don't need it anymore.
Just passthrought for USB. Therefore I have changed the parameter to this:
Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet intel_iommu=on iommu=pt pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction"

This works for me.
