I finally managed to install Proxmox via Ventoy. It would not boot the usb without Ventoy. Installed. But now same problem, now hdd doesn't boot proxmox. I can only boot via rescue on usb. Is there anyway to somehow add a script or .bat file to get the hdd to boot proxmox?
 
It's an older system. I'm a complete noob at all this code stuff. I can install debian and boot no problem from hdd. I found trying to install proxmox ontop too complicated..when I followed various tuts I always got errors so couldn't get any further.
 
I followed that yesterday but it didn't work. I can't remember where it was but it couldn't find something or said it didn't exist when I got to part of the code.
I followed it exactly. I gave up in the end as it wasn't turning out as described in the wiki.
I've spent way too much time on yrying to get it to work.
I think I will just have to give up and possibly wait till I buy a server. I just wanted to try out proxmox before making the commitment of laying out cash to see if I got on OK with Proxmox.
