Installing Home Assistant OS using Proxmox 7

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.

using @tteck ‘s script to install HA OS instead

It did that some time ago already

@kanga_who

3.1) To run the install script, copy and paste the following command into the Putty window you have open. This will download an official image from the Home Assistant website and configure it in Proxmox for you. This will take 2-20mins depending on your internet connection and machine.

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/main/vm/haos-vm-v3.sh)"

@kanga_who

Installing Home Assistant in Proxmox has been made very simple with an excellent script created by Whiskerz007

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

Gave it a shot but hafter it extracts the image it errors out.

 ✓ Downloaded 8.1.qcow2 Disk Image

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

That’s usually the storage you’re trying to use

https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/issues/257
https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/issues/253

[mkono87 (Mike)]

Yeah I have a single “local” storage, no lvm

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

What type of file system are you using for “local”? ext4 | ZFS | BTRFS ?

edit: Just a note… the script doesn’t work with BTRFS or Pimox.

[mkono87 (Mike)]

To be honest I can’t tell everywhere i looked it just says lvm. Just used the defaults when installing proxmox. I did combine both partitions into a single local partition.

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

Did you select the defaults when attempting to create the VM?

[mkono87 (Mike)]

Yes I did.

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

After you combined partitions, did you add Disk image & Container to local?

As you can see, mine isn’t selected.

[mkono87 (Mike)]

Yes all our selected actually.

Here is the error.

Creating HAOS VM…volume ‘local:100/vm-100-disk-1.qcow2’ does not exist
ERROR [email protected] Unknown failure occured.

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

Yeah, same as https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/issues/257 (but had lvm to fallback)
I’m pretty sure it’s caused by the combined partitions. I’ve never tested that.

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

@mkono87

I did combine both partitions into a single local partition.

If I may ask, why did you combine?

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

@mkono87

To be honest I can’t tell everywhere i looked it just says lvm.

fyi… cat /etc/fstab or lsblk -f should tell you

[mkono87 (Mike)]

ext4

Proxmox creates weird partition sizes and leaves space unusable for certain things… I have been doing it a few years now with no issue.

Edit: I just did it manually and im up and running.

Thanks for reminding me I need to update the guide

[tteck (𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙠𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧)]

Looks good, other than ‘sata0’ should be ‘scsi0’
