is this project dead? #105

MartinVerges commented 1 year ago

Hello,

does anyone know if this project is dead? The software state is quite outdated, does therefore not support PBS Namespaces for example and it looks like there is nothing going on.

Any way to help with it or to build it automatically with a newer version?

Thanks for the work so far, I hope it will continue!

Regards Martin

Mostly sleeping. I'll do a 7.3 update, hopefully before the end of the year - just need to find the time.

MartinVerges commented 1 year ago

Is there anything that would help you? Like having a fast aarch64 build machine or so? Please let me know if it's something besides time

HLeithner commented 1 year ago

@aanon4 do you have a script for updating or do you update very repo by hand? do need help doing this?

I just installed pimox on a raspberry 4 and it works really well thanks

aanon4 commented 1 year ago

Unfortunately it's by hand as they tend to create new packages over time making this hard to automate. Still hoping to have time before the year is out.

HLeithner commented 1 year ago

ok but doing this manually for 60 repos doesn't sounds sustainable for me^^

Can you layout what steps you are doing and I would like to write a script for you, which at least could update the current available repos?

MartinVerges commented 1 year ago

I would also love to help and build an automated pipeline!

you mean https://github.com/jiangcuo/Proxmox-Arm64 ?

thefiredragon commented 1 year ago

@jiangcuo thanks for sharing your repo here, also It looks like you repack the packages for arm64 capability instead to build it native from source ?

Your readme also contain info to add your repo but how to install proxmox is missing in your documentation.

A script to build native binarys in arm64 would be nice. This should be possible with a docker build script to keep this project alive.

First, let me say thanks for this amazing project, it has turned my little pis into a datacenter. :heart:

I was wondering whether there has been any progress in automating pimox updates. It works so well that I am really tempted to move everything I run on pis on top of pimox. But at the same time I am a bit scared that, say, a year from now something breaks and no updates are possible.

Is this repo an up-to-date alternative for Pimox7? https://github.com/jiangcuo/Proxmox-Arm64

Does anyone have experience with whether an upgrade works without problems?

TheBossME commented 1 year ago

Of course, i've done it with success.

I tried the same via adding the sources from https://github.com/jiangcuo/Proxmox-Arm64 and apt upgrade from a working Pimox 7.2 installation. After reboot I had a booting Proxmox-Arm 7.4, but starting VMs (both, migrated and newly created) had no connection to the host network bridge despite a correct configuration. So in the end I reverted back to Pimox 7.2.

Do a Fresh Installation with Debian Image. It will Work properly. Use the Debian Kernel 5.10-20/23.

Take the stable Debian 11 (not raspberry) bullseye Image.

https://raspi.debian.net/tested-images/

And follow the Installation recommendations

https://github.com/jiangcuo/Proxmox-Arm64/wiki/Install-Proxmox-VE-on-Debian-bullseye

Install chrony additionally.
