# Debian + Proxmox + Nvidia Drivers install guide

Instalation of Debian then proxmox on it and then Nvidia drivers

- First of all setup all shit u need on Debian
- Set ip address in **/etc/hosts**
```
127.0.0.1       localhost
192.168.15.77   prox4m1.proxmox.com prox4m1

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
```

- Add the Proxmox VE repository:
```
echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-install-repo.list
```

- Add the Proxmox VE repository key as root (or use sudo):
```
wget https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg 
# verify
sha512sum /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg 
7fb03ec8a1675723d2853b84aa4fdb49a46a3bb72b9951361488bfd19b29aab0a789a4f8c7406e71a69aabbc727c936d3549731c4659ffa1a08f44db8fdcebfa  /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg
```

- Update your repository and system by running:
```
apt update && apt full-upgrade
```

- Install the Proxmox VE packages + Proxmox headers
```
apt install proxmox-ve postfix open-iscsi pve-headers
```

- The os-prober package scans all the partitions of your host, including those assigned to guests VMs, to create dual-boot GRUB entries. If you didn't install Proxmox VE as dual boot beside another Operating System, you can safely remove the os-prober package.
```
apt remove os-prober
```

- Once logged in, create a Linux Bridge called vmbr0, and add your first network interface to it.
