Installing Home Assistant OS using Proxmox 8

Community Guides
684

Are you running Proxmox on the blue? Not sure why you would be when this device is designed to run HA OS only.

685

no, I just found this thread covering the RC1 release and hoped someone has an idea :wink:

686

I hope that you have a recent backup that’s not on the Blue, because you may have to re-flash.

687

I have :slight_smile: but I’m wondering what could be the issue, because even after rebooting 3 times, the system should rollback automatically, but there happens nothing :frowning:

How a Proxmox VM works is entirely different to the Blue.

Not sure if this is a HASSOS issue or proxmox, but whenever I try to update HASSOS the system will disconnect (probably because it’s updating), but then will never come back up on its own. I have to force stop the VM and start it back up and then it’s on the latest version of the OS. Going into Console when this is happening doesn’t show anything so not sure what the deal is. Is there some setting I may have missed? I used this script last year, been having this issue ever since. Just leads me to not update as often as I should. Anyone else run into these issues?

That’s before this guide started using my scripts (a lot has changed).
I’d suggest making a full backup of HA and download it.
Copy the MAC address of your VM and shut it down.
Create a new HAOS VM with the script above not using the default settings so that you can insert the MAC address from the other VM (this will keep the IP the same as the old VM).
Upload and restore the backup.
If everything is working as it should, remove the old VM (never run both VM’s at the same time)

By not using the default settings do I need to change the script or do you just mean shut the VM down, edit the network settings to override the MAC address back to what it is currently?

692

When you run the script, it will ask you if you want to use the default settings, select NO

693

got it, thanks!

How did the update to OS 9 go?

695

thanks for checking! I haven’t done it yet, (didn’t even now it was out). I’ll try tonight and see how it goes and let you know.

The HA Team just made a Revert “Bump stable channel Home Assistant OS to 9.0” so you may have to wait for an update.

Edit: They just made a Revert "Revert “Bump stable channel Home Assistant OS to 9.0"”
OS 9 is a go, again

It looked like it worked. I had removed some hardware but hadn’t shutdown/rebooted the VM so it had USB errors after the install and reboot, so I had to shut it down and reboot.

Hi

I’m facing same issue and tried just 1 hour ago to update rom 8.5 to 9.0 but I still get stuck.

As I read from your message, it should be all working after

Edit: They just made a Revert “Revert “Bump stable channel Home Assistant OS to 9.0””
OS 9 is a go, again

Should I do anything before or after the update process?

Thanks

The conversation between patmann03 and I starts here of trying to solve their issue of getting stuck after OS updates. Your issue may be totally different.

:arrow_right: If you installed HAOS using a script from this guide before May 3 2022, I’d suggest doing this.

I haven’t used your script, but I used this script to create the HA VM.

I will try to check messages in this thread to see if it’s valid also for my issue

Thanks

Pretty sure that is the script I used as well about a year or so ago. I do think taking a backup and rebuilding the VM with this script worked. I will know for sure next OS update.
