Currently Proxmox VE installer lacks support for installing on eMMC (/dev/mmcblk). Users have to manually patch the installer code to make this happen: https://ibug.io/blog/2022/03/install-proxmox-ve-emmc/ I would like to contribute this to the Proxmox installer so that this no longer required to be done by end users. Is it okay and what is the proper way to contribute? _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread

I think there are more stable eMMC options around nowadays, so maybe we could include such a patch if it also adds a warning that this might be dangerous depending on the concrete hardware that is used? in general, you can find information on how to contribute patches to any of our projects here: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Developer_Documentation in particular, the CLA part at the bottom is an important pre-requisite! thanks, Fabian _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
