Hi, can you help me how to create a working boot ssd ? I also have a Orange Pi5 but for me not working. I try to create this UEFI ssd but failed. Please 🙏
My keyboard is not detected when I want to press the ESC key and I am confused about what to do. I've changed 4 brands of keyboard and moved from USB 1 - 4 on Raspi 5 but it still doesn't work when I want to install Proxmox . I use the official power supply and the unit I just bought
Same problem here...I even tried Raspberry Pi Imager instead of etcher hoping that it maybe starts automatically without selecting it in the boot menu - still doenst work. I hope there will be a workaround/fix for the problem. Ich bought the pi + stuff just for Proxmox :D
Try preparing a normal Raspberry Pi OS on your SD-Card but then just copy the uefi-files you downloaded on the SD-Card. It asks you, if you want to replace. Click yes and tadaa, it works...at least it did for me :D@@jamiestables3370
What up Don? Do you happen to know if it's possible to pass through the GPU? I still want to use my pi five as a TV computer but would also like to edit to my proxmox cluster.
I have been trying that in the past with an iGpu of a nuc, and it has been insanely complex. Embarrassing for proxmox, considering it's supposed to make things easier by leaving the terminal out
@@marcely1199 Proxmox needs a GPU when booting up. You can *NOT* use it without a GPU until all the services and kernel modules are loaded. Afterwards, you might, with a bit of luck, run a GPU detach script that will on-the-fly detach the GPU from the host and re-attach it to a specific VM. However, under normal circumstances in a regular Linux environment with a desktop, that will mean that the sessions are logged out (assuming 1 GPU is present which needs to be passed through). I don't know what will happen if you successfully do this on a Proxmox machine. Might be worth a try. In theory that would mean you could pass through your single, Intel iGPU to a VM. If I am not mistaken, this might already be possible on newer iGPU's as I recall that the Intel Iris graphics have some sort of SR-IOV but I am not 100% on that.
You can easily passthrough GPU to Docker container. No specific hardware support required. But virtual machines require special hardware extensions like vt-d. One of the reasons why containers are better.
great video, it's because of your video about proxmox and raspberry pi 4 that make me start using proxmox, and now i use a mini pc lenovo for proxmox and my raspberry pi 4 as a nas thx for the video
Is that the x86 version of Win11 on there? Does that aarch package let you run x86 on arm architectures? Albeit very slow, but this would great to bring up and test x86 images too.
I can't get a VM to display anything. I've downloaded the .img for Bookworm and created the VM but when I start it up I'm getting "Display output is not active". I can't find a solution to this problem anywhere.
Hello. I understand that the fan controller and the ethernet port will not work if we install it this way. Is this still the case after installing proxmox? Do we always have to use the USB port for internet access?
I’m not sure if you covered this on a previous video but just wondering why you would use a hypervisor. What’s the advantage other than being able to have multiple os running. If you’re just running multiple services, wouldn’t a container be better?
yes and not really. I'm now running openwrt on libvirt (KVM stuff) on armbian on RK3399 - the kvm allows me to use "software flow offloading" on specific owrt kernel, which can't be working with a owrt container with the armbian kernel.
I use Proxmox on these arm for LXC purposes, I would never try full virtualisation. The main draw for me is easy provisioning but also the ability to use something like proxmox backup server for backups. Using something like the orange pi 5 plus, its also easy enough to create a full blown HA cluster with HA storage using ceph too.
I tried to install it on a Raspberry Pi 4 and I couldn't install it on the SD card, but it gave me the following error "unable to get device for partition 1 on device /dev/mmcblk1". I already installed it on an external drive and it only shows me 2.8 GB of RAM out of the 8 GB it has
Thanks for this and awesome . Please tell us how to output the video and audio of any Proxmox vms on the HDMI port of the Raspberry Pi to any screen.tnx
Thnx for sharing this info. A RPI is great as a whitness node if you're building a cluster or for very efficient container hosting (e.g. PiHole/home automation).
I don't know about it being necessarily "efficient". I guess that depends on what is your definition of "efficient". The reason why I say that is because if you take the performance and features of the RPi5 to create like a composite "performance" metric, that you can then use to calculate Performance/($/Watt) -- this result ends up being not that great. If you are pressed for cash, and can't afford at sub-$150 mini PC -- then ok. But I just bought three Mini PCs that sport the Intel N95 processor, with dual GbE NICs for ~$150 USD from Amazon, put them into a 3-node HA Proxmox cluster, and each node idles at around 7 W (which, yes, is higher than the RPi5), but the processor will also do donuts around the RPi5 CPU as well, plus it had Intel UHD graphics, which means it has QuickSync, which means that I can do hardware accelerated video transcoding, which I don't think that the RPi5 would be able to do. (Before I bought my Mini PCs, I spent about 2 months calculating and tracking the performance/($/Watt) across about 35 or 36 different options and for the RPI5 to be price competitive, I think that I calculated it out to be that it couldn't cost most than something like a few bucks and change for it to make sense to deploy as a 3-node HA Proxmox cluster.) If you're only looking at power consumption - yes. But if you compute a sort of composite "performance"/($/Watt) metric -- then it might not be as efficient, relatively speaking.
@@ewenchan1239 I was strictly looking at power consumption. Here in Europe that matters a lot more then in the US so this "small" difference actually becomes a lot bigger, a lot quicker over here. The RPI's are not a good choice if an x86 option is available for the same money, with the same power consumption. But the RPI's have the advantage in the minimum and maximum wattage that they require to get things done. If you care about speed or need applications that depend on the x86 architecture, then don't bother. If you just need a simple witness node for your cluster and some extra small microservices here and there, preferably run inside containers instead of full fat VM's, then the RPI's or OrangePi's or whatever, make for a decent option.
Hey good video I just have one problem I have the kvm Bought the Geekworm KVM-A3 kit and then when I want to install Proxmox I only see half of the installation setup. I can't click on next at the bottom. It's not shown. Can anyone tell me what the problem is otherwise everything works fine
Hahah I checked that too cause others mentioned this. And I had mine before him and also I had to edit the audio tracks to make it sound the way it is, the original song does not sound like this
And for the ROCK 5B? I've installed the UEFI files in my SD using BalenaEtcher (because it's an .img file) but it can't work and the SBC doesn't start. Without the SD the Rock5B start fine because the old operating system was in the NVMe. Help me! :(
Proxmox is new to me (almost a boomer). Can a proxmox VM be made to use remote hardware, like a PXE booted system, or is it completely dependent on what the Pi has? Because I could sure use it to just host images, if it does. I have plenty of other boxes to use as interfaces.
@@misat0san okay, thanks. I only have the 4gb pi5, so, maybe not SO good for me. I still have a 32gb server, so that may have to be repurposed. I need to rebuild other stuff anyway, LOL!
A VM can do almost anything a real .achine can. It can boot over the network and it can provide services over the network. That's what most VMs do day in and day out! 4gb is not a problem if your VM are light enough. Might still be better to do containers though.
I wish, I could run Proxmox or TrueNAS Scale on my old MacBook Air 2019 (with display damage) as server. Such a waste of money and performance. I've tried to install it, but have several issues with native divers for keyboard and trackpad. Linux is such a garbage OS on Mac's. There is no intention to support Apple hardware natively.
Why can Apple make 100 million IPhones and Raspberry PI doesn't even have enough street cred to make a couple million? How can they ever expect to go big time (stock exchange) if the can't deliver inventory? Been waiting for mine through Sparkfun forever and am thinking of just giving up on my planned PI5 projects.

I don't know what it's like in other countries, but in Germany the supply of Pi 5 is very good. At least if you only need 1-2 and don't want to buy 10 straight away.
People use iPhones daily and buy a new one every two years. A raspberry pi will live in someone’s drawer most of its life, and most people will never want one. You commie brains are funny.

Heyo,
What do we need the rpi5-uefi for? Can't we just install the proxmox-port on a normal distribution?
