Proxmox VE kernel 2.6.32 does not boot on Debian 8

[huksley]

Hello!

I am having problems after installing kernel and firmware and rebooting into new kernel to complete installation.
My setup is following:

Intel i7 CPU, 16GB RAM, 3 TB RAID, LSI MegaRAID SAS 9260-4i, NIC EXPI9301CT
/boot /dev/sda1 ext3
rest is lvm -> swap 8Gb + / 20gb ext4
Debian 8 with latest kernel boots ok,
but when I choose 2.6.32 kernel it hangs during booting.

Here is screenshot.


Grub config is following:
linux /vmlinuz-2.6.32-26-pve root=/dev/mapper/vg0-root ro nomodeset
initrd /initrd.img-2.6.32-26-pve

I am sorry. This is invalid. I used wheezy repo for jessie.
I recreated VM and setup according to http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_Jessie
System booted and Web UI working.

Hi, don't worry, everybody makes mistakes, your fast discover and recover will help anyone else to double check things (repos) if something similar happens...
Every little bit helps
