Hi i’m new add proxmox. I have a nuci5 with a 500 gb ssd disk and will install proxmox on the ssd disk. But how can i set that i use 100 gb of that disk for the proxmox and the rest for vm storage?
 
If you use the proxmox installer ISO image it will do that for you by default.
Its less than 100gb for pve itself but that shouldn't bother you I guess ;)

That is amzing thanks for the quick answe! i watched some videos on youtube and thought some said it couldn't be thought it strange hah. Less is certainly not a problem haha. I want to install it with a usb boot then it just works, right?
 
Do yourself a favour and don't install on a USB thumb drive.
I had a lot (and I mean a lot!) Of trouble doing that.
 
I think we have talked about different things

If you want to install FROM a USB stick as installer media that is of course possible.

My advice was that you should not install TO a USB stick and use that as a boot drive.

Hope that's clear now :)

Why do you want to create additional storage. Just use what pve has created for you ;)
