- <p>DISCLAIMER: While running ARM64 architecture VMs on Proxmox works, the performance is not on par with what it would be on a baremetal ARM device. In this example I'll be installing Debian 11 AARCH64 in Proxmox running on Intel x64 based hardware.</p>
- <ol>
- <li>Log into the ProxMox web UI</li>
- <li>Select a storage from the left navigation pane to download the .iso to</li>
- <li>Select ISO Images in the left sub-navigation pane</li>
- <li>If running ProxMox 6, download the Debian ARM64 iso <a href="https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/release/current/arm64/iso-cd/debian-11.1.0-arm64-netinst.iso" target="_blank">Download</a> and upload it to the ProxMox ISO image library</li>
- <li>If on ProxMox 7, click Download from URL and paste the download URL from above > Click Query URL > Click Download</li>
- <li>Right click the ProxMox node name > Create VM</li>
- <li>Type DebianARM64 in the name field set the VM ID to 164 (unless 164 is in use) > Next</li>
- <li>Set the Type to Linux, Version to 5.x - 2.6 Kernel and select Do not use any media > Next</li>
- <li>On the System tab set the BIOS for OVMF (UEFI), Uncheck the Add EFI Disk checkbox > Next</li>
- <li>On the Hard Disk tab, set the Storage device and Disk size to 16 (adjust as needed) > Next</li>
- <li>On the CPU tab, set the number Cores to 2 (adjust as needed) > Next</li>
- <li>On the Memory tab, set the Memory to 2048 (adjust as needed) > Next</li>
- <li>Leave the defaults on the Network tab > Next</li>
- <li>Verify the summary and click Finish</li>
- <li>Select the DebianARM64 VM in the left navigation pane</li>
- <li>Select Hardware from the left navigation sub-menu</li>
- <li>Click on the CD/DVD Drive to select it > Click Remove at the top of the main content area > Click Yes to confirm</li>
- <li>Click Add > Serial Port > Leave the Port Number 0 > Click Add</li>
- <li>Click Add > Select CD/DVD Drive > Set the Bus/Device to SCSI > Select the Storage device where the Debian ARM64 iso is uploaded > Select the uploaded Debian ARM64 iso > Click Create</li>
- <li>Double click Display to edit it > Set the Graphic card value to Serial terminal 0 > Click OK</li>
- <li>Select Options from the left navigation sub-menu</li>
- <li>Double click Boot order to edit it > Drag/drop the SCSI2 device (where the Debian iso is attached) to the top of the list > Click OK</li>
- <li>Right click the ProxMox node name > Console</li>
- <li>Run the following commands in the terminal
- <div class="codeBlock CMD"># edit the VM conf file, change 164 to the VM ID for the DebianARM64 VM<br />
- nano /etc/pve/qemu-server/164.conf</div>
- </li>
- <li>Add the following line to the bottom of the .conf file:
- <p>arch: aarch64</p>
- </li>
- <li>Find the line starting with vmgenid: and comment it out by adding a # to the beginning of the line</li>
- <li>Press CTRL+O, Enter, CTRL+X to write the changes to the conf file</li>
- <li>Back in the Proxmox web UI, select the DebianARM64 VM from the left navigation menu</li>
- <li>Click console in the left sub-navigation menu</li>
- <li>Click Start at the top right of the screen to start the VM</li>
- <li>Wait a moment for the serial console to initialize</li>
