Well, it has been a crazy day, but it is almost over. I spent an hour and a half getting Proxmox installed on my server and all kinds of crazy was occurring with it. When I used the thumb drive with Ventoy on it sometimes the server would recognize the drive and boot to the menu but not completely load Proxmox for install. Other time it would not recognize the iso file for Proxmox and it was doing this back and forth the whole time. The thumb drive was fine since I was able to read it on my laptop in which I deleted the Proxmox iso and downloaded it again for the download page and copied to the thumb drive again. I tried uefi boot as well as legacy boot and the same thing. I tried normal boot in Ventoy and grub2 boot and still it would get to the Proxmox setup screen but when it tried to read from the iso it was a no go. Finally, after an hour I thought let's try booting from the cdrom drive and see if I can get that to work and "bob's your uncle" it let me install Proxmox on that box. That should have not been that hard but like I said, crazy Thursday. Now I have the task of getting it configured and getting my VM's and LXC containers loaded on it. I might wait until tomorrow to get that task completed lol.
Like they say, " what doesn't kill you makes you stronger". Now I need to push ahead.
Happy Thursday 🙂
