Manual installation

Prechecks

  1. Pre-installed Debian Bullseye based 64-bit OS (not 32bit)
  2. In /etc/network/interfaces, give the Pi a static IP address. You cannot use dhcp.
  3. In /etc/network/interfaces, remove any IPv6 addresses.
  4. In /etc/hostname, make sure the Pi has a name.
  5. In /etc/hosts, make sure this hostname corresponds to the static IP you previous set.
  6. Make sure the kernel-headers are installed.

Installation

  1. echo "deb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pimox/pimox7/master/ dev/" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pimox.list
  2. curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pimox/pimox7/master/KEY.gpg | apt-key add -
  3. apt update
  4. apt install proxmox-ve (use a local attatched console! Network connections will be lost/reset during installation progress)

Notes

  1. This repo just contains the precompiled debian packages. The original Proxmox sources can be found at https://git.proxmox.com
  2. The (very minimally) patched sources to rebuild this can be found at https://github.com/pimox
