Start the installation, new boot options
- The installer now supports partitions greater 2 TB
- At install time, at the boot prompt you can specify "linux" followed by one or more optional parameters, see below:
- Default partitioning uses still ext3, if you want ext4 just type: ext4
- To define the amount of root partition's disk space: maxroot=X (where X is in GB).
- To define the amount of swap partition's disk space: swapsize=X (where X is in GB).
- To define the amount of logical volume "data" space (/var/lib/vz): maxvz=X (where X is in GB).
- To define the amount of free space left in PVE LVM : minfree=X (where X is in GB, 16GB is the default)
- Example, 'linux ext4 maxroot=25 swapsize=8 maxvz=400 minfree=32'
- follow the instructions as always
For any issue, please use the Proxmox VE 2.x Forum.
