You usually don't need to change the BIOs to boot off of the USB - during the POST there is a key to press, some computers it's the Esc key, others it's DEL or F2. It'll bring up a boot menu, you select the USB and you're off to the races.
Correct systems usually have a boot menu accessible after POST. Usually esc/f8/f9/f11 varies between mitherboard manufacturers. Del/F2 is usually bios setup. Quite right though
@@sheridans Sorry - I was operating from memory... and my desktop I haven't had to do this for awhile... my laptop is the Esc key. F8 is the traditional one, now that you've cleaned out some of the old cobwebs... :)
What are the various CPU types and how does one know what to choose? You've left yours as the default of x86-64-v2-AES but that didn't work for me and "QEMU exited with code 1" on booting . After checking the log I found an article that said I should use either Host or KVM64 for the processor type at which point it booted but then I got an error for not having chosen an audio device. Im using an old machine as a tryout. None of these settings are discussed in your video and it would be helpful to get them explained. Otherwise what you have done does not work on another machine.
@@sheridans LOL. I already said that. You should change the introduction to say "comprehensive tutorial my ar5e". Seems like you know less about this stuff than I do after just 2 hours of reading about it.🙄
@@daytrader66You use the cpu type that closest matches your hardware. x84-64-v2 closely resembles most modern hardware. If you're not moving VMs around nodes, then you can use host to get full cpu functionality rather than emulated cpu functionality. If you go to your VM - hardware - cpu you can see the list of available cpu types which gives a rough idea of what they are. What CPU do you have?
I installed 8.2 on a minisforum ms01, all in cli seems to be in order. Have the correct nic in use, but no web access. What are the main issues one will have when this fails? Installed opnsense on another pc and no issues accessing that..
I mainly work with HP Proliant servers & configure either RAID 1 or 5 depending on the goals/needs of the project. I wanted to ask if there's any danger in using the entire hard disk capacity like in VMWare ESXi deployments when installing the Proxmox operating system? Or can I reserve one hard disk slot for the O.S. & use the rest (configured with RAID) for the installation & configuration of virtual machines?

Nice one Sam, I've never used Proxmox, looks like a contender. Thank you for the video!

Have plenty of cobwebs myself 😁
I use ventoy for putting the ISO on a jump drive - allows me to have a bunch of ISO's on one jump drive.
Yup, handy tool
Thanks for the walkthrough. I had some issues with Bluetooth drivers and still do but at least I can access get the network access over RJ45.

If you have older hardware, all I can suggest is trying host and kvm for cou types without diving in to your specific cpu type

Hey i dont know how you assign the network to it

I've used proxmox local storage many times if that's what your asking, separate drives and nodes make things easier
is there a way I can install it without a USB ?
If you have a dvd drive available, you could burn the iso to a dvd and install from there.
Pxe network boot is an alternative if dvd is not an option
