Tutorial: DSM 6.x on Proxmox
After fiddling with it for a day, and getting it to work, I thought it would be nice to share the knowledge, especially since "officially" only ESXi is supported, and ESXi is picky about supporting stuff...
The main reason for me to move to a hypervisor was because Synology has not yet introduced NVMe support AT ALL. And even with a kernel driver, the Storage Manager will not see it as an SSD, as an HDD, or anything. Synology is silent about this, even though some have requested it o
All right, here's a tutorial for what worked for me.
Proxmox version: 6.0-7
Proxmox hardware: Celeron J1900, Proxmox on an SSD, single SATA HDD (WDC).
Loader used: Jun's loader 1.03b
DSM software used: DSM_DS3615xs_24922.pat
First, patch Proxmox so it allows for e1000e network card selection:
# make backup
cp /usr/share/pve-manager/pvemanagerlib.js /usr/share/pve-manager/pvemanagerlib.js.dist
# add e1000e
sed -i 's/|e1000|/|e1000|e1000e|/' /usr/share/pv
