Proxmox VE 7.3 vs. Fujitsu Primergy RX2530 M4

[symlink]

Hello Community,

i try to install VE 7.3 on a "Fujitsu Primergy RX2530 M4"-machine.

First i ended up in a blank screen and a bootloop. Some research in the forums suggest to extend the bootparamters in for grub with "nomodeset" to get around the blank screen and bootloop.

After following this step the x-server won't start. I think it is because of unsupported graphics-card? Changing to tty2 it says "Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs".

I found a thread in the forums which said: search the pci with "lspci | grep -i vga" which will list the vga-adapter then create a driver-file and start with "xinit -- -dpi 96 >/dev/tty2 2>&1". ( Did this on tty3 )

I ended up in the white screen on tty4 and nothing happens

Maybe there is someone outside who faces the same "problem"

Thanks for your help

Sometimes there may problems occur with graphic display during installation.
Possible workarounds:
- try to install pve using an older version of iso http://download.proxmox.com/iso/ and upgrade afterwards
- install pve on a different machine (can be also a virtual one, i.e. another Proxmox, vmware, VirtualBox or whatever) and transfer the Disk (respectively it's content) afterwards to your target server
- install Debian 11 and pve on top of it, see https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#_install_proxmox_ve_on_debian
