Dear gentleman,

i buy a VDS from Contabo with proxmox installed. I try to create a VM Windows 10, but the installation stuck on the beginning.

I try with different ISO and different configuration (UEFI, SeaBios...), without success.

Im new in Proxmox. I have the following doubts:
1. I have only local disk. I dont have local-lvm, it's correct?
2. pvscan say : No matching physical volumes found. I need it?
This is the kernel version:
5.10.6-1-pve
This is the last VM configuration i tried:
agent: 1
bios: seabios
boot: order=ide2;scsi0;ide3
cores: 4
cpu: host
efidisk0: local:100/vm-100-disk-0.raw,efitype=4m,pre-enrolled-keys=1,size=528K
ide2: local:iso/Win10_1909_English_x64.iso,media=cdrom,size=5294394K
ide3: local:iso/virtio-win-0.1.240.iso,media=cdrom,size=612812K
machine: pc-i440fx-7.2
memory: 2048
meta: creation-qemu=7.2.0,ctime=1706127258
name: Windows
net0: virtio=FE:5C:E9:09:B5:FF,bridge=vmbr0,firewall=1
numa: 0
ostype: win10
scsi0: local:100/vm-100-disk-1.raw,cache=writeback,discard=on,size=80G
scsihw: virtio-scsi-pci

Thank's in advance for any suggestion.
 
Does the VDS support nested virtualization? If you run lscpu | grep Virtualization, does it show anything? If not, then there is no HW virtualization enabled and therefore and VM will be sloooow as it will be fully emulated.
