[PVE-User] Install Proxmox on IBM X3650 M2

[Ricardo Persaud]

Hi Thomas,

The nomodeset did not work.
I disabled the following in the BIOS and it worked like a charm. Thanks for your help.
BIOS>System setting>Legacy Support
Force Legacy Video on Boot >Disable
Rehook INT 19h>Disable


Met vriendelijke groet / With kind regards,

When I boot from the install CD or USB, I get the menu screen and when I choose to install Proxmox VE my monitor starts to display different colors and pattern. I attached a screenshot. To be sure that there was not a problem with my installation medium, I tested it on a regular computer and the installation went normal. I also tested a window 10 installation on the IBM server and that went ok. What could be the issue here?
