in the past, we've been a bit wary about supporting such devices because PVE is quite write intensive on /, and many such devices quickly wear out and fail.. I think there are more stable eMMC options around nowadays, so maybe we could include such a patch if it also adds a warning that this might be dangerous depending on the concrete hardware that is used? in general, you can find information on how to contribute patches to any of our projects here: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Developer_Documentation in particular, the CLA part at the bottom is an important pre-requisite! thanks, Fabian _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
