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 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

Thanks I tried that. I made a new .sh from the portion of the initrd that mounts all the squashfs files and runs unconfigured.sh. It seems to almost work, but it gets to Detecting network settings... done and then says \nInstallation aborted - unable to continue any ideas why? On 19 May 2017

Thanks for the quick reply. I am booting from the ISO file itself which is on a multiboot USB drive. In previous versions, you could boot to the shell, mount the ISO as /mnt and then start the install by running unconfigured.sh. So basically, if I boot to the shell, how can I start the install

In version 3.2 ISO there was this script to start an install. This file is not in recent versions. Is there an equivalent way to start an install with v4.4 or any other recent version? Thanks Steve ___ pve-user mailing list pve-user@pve.proxmox.com
