Proxmox manual install guide (this is a non-issue issue) #107

Open russkinz opened 9 months ago

russkinz commented 9 months ago

Hello!

I hate being "that guy" and I know Soon is just whenever you get to it, and you probably have a heap of other stuff on the go - but any guideline on when (or if) you'll have a chance to pull together the Proxmox manual install guide? I'm happy to be a beta tester if that would be helpful...

If it's not going to be a thing or it's going to be a while off, I'll just bite the bullet and wing it, but I do like having a good example to refer to!

Presumably it's not vastly different to the Ubuntu build (other than some stuff being prebuilt due to the nature of Proxmox etc) so I could use that as a exemplar?

I would also like the guide as well, does it help if we throw money at the solution? haha

+1 interested in the Proxmox manual guide. Also willing to beta test!

russkinz commented 7 months ago

I bit the bullet and did my own version. I'm not sure if it's good, best practice, or even stable... and I didn't document it at all, but I might try find some time to do that and will let you know. I pulled inspiration from multiple sources and would be gathering it all into one place...

tindolt commented 7 months ago

Yes please would like to see.

I'm also quite interested in the Proxmox build guide. It's a bit frustrating reading through all of the reasoning behind Proxmox being the better implementation then getting to the guide page only for it to be empty. Going through the ubuntu build guide now.

Proxmox is based on Debian which is mostly equivalent to Ubuntu anyways. Following the primary Ubuntu guide will get you there. TBH, I think the solution is just to rename the articles because they'd be so similar in content anyways.

That's reassuring! I'm in the early stages of a Proxmox build now and it's all gone smoothly from following the Ubuntu guide so far. I did have to change the Proxmox repos to the non-subscription ones before apt would work, if there are any other differences I'll note them down.

First thing I do now on a fresh Proxmox install is "fix" the repos etc using these proxmox helper scripts.

I do understand what you're saying and agree that a lot is the same. But I still find it hard to wrap my head around where I should install/configure what. In the Ubuntu installation you suddenly start working with Docker. But I thought I had to organize my disks in the PVE itself. So I don't think it's wise to install Docker on the pve host.

Long story short, if you still have the time to write the article for Proxmox users, it would be much appreciated!
