Hello community,

I tried to install new proxmox 8.2.iso bootable from USB into below pc configuration:
MSI PRO Z790-A MAX WIFI
Procesor Intel Core i5-14600KF, 3.5 GHz
SSD Lexar NM710 1TB M.2 2280 PCI-E x4 Gen4 NVMe
Kingston Fury Beast, DDR5, 32 GB

I tried different ways:
1)First i created bootable USB following below link Mac OS:
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pve-installation.html


2)I created using BalenaEtcher.

But it gave error "image1.png" image attached.

I also tried to install it after installing debian 12 following:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_12_Bookworm

But after rebooting and removing the debian kerner it get stuck on "loading initial ram"
Also i see error while removing debian kernel, probably because is in used?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Moayad,

Thanks.

You meant this...


Kernel 6.8​

The Proxmox VE 8.2 releases will install and use the 6.8 Linux kernel by default, a major kernel change can have a few, hardware specific, side effects.

You can avoid installing the 6.8 kernel by pinning the proxmox-default-kernel package version before the upgrade. The last version to depend on kernel 6.5 is 1.0.1.

To pin the package to that version, create a file in /etc/apt/preferences.d/proxmox-default-kernel with the following content. This will keep proxmox-default-kernel on the old version until that file is deleted, and a new upgrade is initiated:

Package: proxmox-default-kernel
Pin: version 1.0.1
Pin-Priority: 1000


and i guess this previous install proxmox , having debian 12? Because there is a way to put in the ISO with the installer?

Thanks in advance!
