overview for nemanin

One of the drives for reference:

Ok. Fair enough.

I'm still working on the first 2, but on the 3rd, yes there are a couple drives that are up and working on the card. 2x 8tb drives (also HGST).

They are SAS drives, not sata. Mobo does have SATA, but not SAS.

I do!

Thanks for the link!

Yah. Trying to make an Uber server.

Bunch of drives for a nas vm

3060 for a bit of a gaming pc cam for things like moonlight.

Rx590 is for a hackintosh vm to make local backups of my iCloud stuff.

And a unix vm to manage docker containers.

Also plan to put Plex in a LXC (I think that’s the term) on Proxmox so it can hardware decode using the igpu.

Welp. Seems I’m an idiot. I’m very much a Unix noob so assumed it was something that Unix I didn’t understand rather than check the physical card again.

I was definitely shipped an nvidia card, not the amd I bid on! So case opened with eBay!

Sorry for the dumb question. Thanks for the great help.

Stay tuned for my next dumb question. :)

NIC goes dark when Proxmox kernel loads after GPU install (works again if GPU removed) in c/selfhosted

How do you do this? Idk what to even google, exactly.

So in the end, the intel 1g NIC just worked, so I gave up for now on trying to get the 2.5g Broadcom working instead.

I might try to link aggregate later and use the 2.5g Broadcom and circle back on this.. but we’ll see.

I also got the second GPU installed and it shows up, too. But it’s an Rx590 and is showing as an RTX2070… so I’ll be making another post shortly!

Thanks for all the input!

I have no experience with dmesg and also don’t know how to scroll the history since I’m not on a terminal app (since I can’t get the NIC up).

Anything here helpful?

Ohhh. In that last line. I wasn’t even looking at that, I assumed the block above that was setting up the primary NIC…

I’ll see if changing that interface name does it…

It’s late. I’ll have to pull the card and re run tomorrow. But here’s with the GPU in:

It’s an i7-14700 and an ASRock z690 extreme. I’m actually hoping to put a second GPU in the last PCIe slot so I can let proxmox use the iGPU, pass the 3060 into a Unix moonlight gaming VM, and pass an RX590 into a hackintosh VM.

ASRock Z90 Extreme.

Has 2 built in NICs. The intel 1g and the Broadcom 2.5g.

Trying to use the Broadcom here, though my Ethernet is only 1g house wide, so I could try the intel if that seems like it could help..
