One last hurdle! instead of /dev/sda1 I want to use /dev/disk/by-uuid/XXX because I don't know how many disks there are in the system but it does not work - I presume that /dev/disk/by-uuid does not yet exist at the time the init script is running? Is there any other way to reference the

I think the problem is with grub4dos. If I use this menu from a FAT32 USB drive title ProxMox lvm2root=sda1 kernel /boot/linux26 ro ramdisk_size=16777216 lvm2root=/dev/sda1 rw quiet splash=silent initrd /boot/initrd.img then it does not work and I get the Installation aborted message but if I

I just found a way to get it to work by modifying the grub menu and add lvm2root=/dev/sdX4 where sdX4 is a partition on the USB drive which points directly to the ISO file. So I am booting from the ISO (mapped to the BIOS device (0xff) in grub4dos) which boots to the grub2 menu and then I add

I tried proxdebug. No extra messages are generated after the network has initialised. There is no log in /tmp folder ? Has the log moved? How do I run xinit? Where is it? Do you mean init? If I run this it says must be run as PID 1 - how can I fix this (sorry, I am not a linux guru!) On 19 May

P.S. As an experiment, I even inserted a dd'd flash drive containing the proxmox ISO (which works if I boot to it) and then booted from my multiboot USB drive to the shell and then mounted /mnt as the flash drive mount /dev/sdc /mnt then I ran the modified script. I gave the same fail message. So
