    Any PC that has virtualization features can be used. Unless it’s very old, I’d say it’s supported. But it may not be enabled in the bios by default. It’s called VT-x for Intel and AMD-v for AMD, I think. But both are supported for at least 10 years on almost any PC.

      Oh wonderful, it’s an old pc my job was throwing out last summer so it’s like a 5-8yo intel. It’s not powerful by any means, but if I can run enough on it to justify the standby power draw it would be great.

      Unfortunately I still have no idea wtf I’m doing lol, but worst case I break it all and wind up buying a home assistant green. I’ve committed to ensuring my home has good air and this is a project I think we’ll appreciate me following through with

        There’s a quick start script to install home assistant after you’ve set up proxmox. I’ve been running it with no issues for months

        Tbf, if you know how to install Linux from a usb drive the proxmox should be a breeze. After you run though the install, go to the url it prints out and mess around. The UI is pretty straight forward.

          Well the good news is I know now that my problem continues. Idk why haos couldn’t ping GitHub and proxmox can’t ping 8.8.8.8, while ubuntu server freely accessed docker, but at least I know I’m not crazy in this way

          Oh good. Ubuntu server and docker are being a real learning experience which while I appreciate I would prefer a bit of hand holding from my os
