Installing Home Assistant OS using Proxmox 8

Worked like a charm. Very much appreciated.
Running it on Promox 7 now on a Intel J4215 plattform with 4 cores and 16GB RAM.

So, I’ve installed using this guide and don’t see the IP address coming up. It shows “Guest Agent not running”.
Just like Installing Home Assistant OS using Proxmox 7 - #180 by Judman13 this user experienced, the output I’ve got when running the update commands is:

# sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade -y && sudo apt install                                                                                                              qemu-guest-agent -y && sudo apt autoremove --purge -y

What should I do to have this solved?

If you’ve used the script above in the past 24hrs, it is broken, it downloads the wrong image (haos_generic-aarch64-8.0.rc3.vmdk)

Yes, I’ve used it today. Any idea for a solution or workaround?

Use the Home Assistant OS VM from https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

Here’s my take on “is the way

Prior to Section 1, you will want to ensure UEFI Boot & Virtualisation is enabled and Secure Boot is disabled in the bios of your machine.

Section 1 - Use this guide
Section 2 - Use Proxmox VE 7 Post Install script*
Section 3 - Use Home Assistant OS VM script*
*Always remember to use due diligence when sourcing scripts and automation tasks from third-party sites.

Enjoy

After many days of testing I realized that at random my addons were not loading at all, same with my system tab that has the logs and supervisor info etc, my network usage was decreasing, cpu and ram usage was increasing. That time I was having either a home assisntant restart or addons staying frozen with integrations working.

The problem seems to be the odd home assistant OS DNS behaviour described here and in many more post at github:

Solution here:

I am using Home Assistant OS on Proxmox with pfSense running on the same VE.
Hope that I have helped !

I have been banging my head against a wall for hours following the original guide with scripts multiple times and not getting anywhere. Glad I scrolled all the way down here. I have been trying to fix a "Guest Agent not running” issue but really the container never really started up to initiate the Guest Agent I suppose. Thanks.

I’ve installed HAOS via the script ten times. I still cannot get past the Preparing Home Assist screen. I’ve scoured these forums, cutting and pasting from my error log. Nothing. Here’s where I think the problem is:

22-05-03 00:15:28 ERROR (MainThread) [supervisor.supervisor] Update of Supervisor failed: Can’t install ghcr.io/home-assistant/amd64-hassio-supervisor:2022.04.0: 500 Server Error for http+docker://localhost/v1.41/images/create?tag=2022.04.0&fromImage=ghcr.io%2Fhome-assistant%2Famd64-hassio-supervisor&platform=linux%2Famd64: Internal Server Error (“Get “https://ghcr.io/v2/”: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)”)
22-05-03 00:15:28 CRITICAL (MainThread) [supervisor.core] Can’t update Supervisor! This will break some Add-ons or affect future versions of Home Assistant!

Any suggestions as to where I’m going wrong with this install would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

It seems it can’t connect to the outside network. Internet…

For those who couldn’t get it working like me, I followed the commands at: How to Install Home Assistant on Proxmox

And got it working. Hope this helps, I thort my old machine was the issue. Turns out it was fine.

I ran through the OP yesterday to test. Worked as it should.

I went through 4ordy’s install processable above. Cannot get past the supervisor starting.

I think this has to do with my Netgear R6700v2 router Netgear GSS116E switch. Looking into that. I’ll update what I find. Just in case someone else is having this issue.

Failed for me at 3.1 but started step 3.2 up to the “click OK” and then selected >_Shell to open console as root. Then I followed the steps offered by mochman on Jun 9, 2021 here:

which kept me going at least through 3.8.

The script in 3.1 is working as intended. The script doesn’t use anything with file extension zip.

Gret Script and great Tutorial!
I followed every step and then i restored my last fullbackup from my previous rpi3. Since then i cant seem to find Supervisor anymore. The Addons menü does not list it anymore but it can still be found in integrations -though all its entities seem to be disabled.
I tried 'ha core rebuild command to restore it but with no luck.
Anyone else having this issue?

The Supervisor panel has been merged into the configuration panel. The separate menu item from the sidebar has been removed.

@kanga_who I suggest editing the main post and using @tteck ‘s script to install HA OS instead. It’s an extremely polished script, and more importantly the author is active both here and on Github, he is actively maintaining and improving the script, and if anyone has a specific issue with it, they will be able to get quick help. Worked like a charm for me, and I think it’s something worth considering, since Whiskerz007 seems to have stopped developing these scripts.

It did that some time ago already :wink:

Oh wow sorry, I was deceived by the fact the instructions still credited Whiskerz007 for making the script, I assumed that was the script being installed in the post (I went to the bottom of the thread first and ran my installation directly from tteck’s repo because I assumed the main post was running Whiskerz’s instead. Apologies
