Hi,

I'm facing a weird problem during the installation, at the stage where I haev to accept the terms and conditions (graphical environment) the graphic card issues a video frequency too high for my all monitors, on only one I can see a ndistoerted desktop whereas with others monitors I get "out of scan".
Unfortunately the workarounds reported here https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-3-4-out-of-range-at-install.21206/ didn't work for me.

Is there a way to modify one or some files in the ISO so that the installation won't choose that frequency. I know I can setup the video card mode at Linux boot but I have no idea on how to to do it on FreeBSD.

OR could somebody tell me what's the key seequence to pass through that screen?

I'm aware of the textual installation by installing Debian and then the proxmox packages but some reasons, not significant here, I would prefer to go for the graphical one.

Mant thanks in advance,

Alex

easy way : use 7.1 iso
proxmox isn't based on freebsd.
it's a Linux Debian Server with a customized Ubuntu Kernel

Thank you, it worked. Sorry for mixing Debian/FreeBSD, I'm working with TrueNAS at the same time and I got confused.
