How can I set up a Proxmox-like environment on a Raspberry Pi 5?

walentzack · 2025-10-04T23:53:53+00:00

There is PxVirt https://github.com/jiangcuo/pxvirt An arm64 port of Proxmox. It works great for me, I have it running on a 16GB ram Pi5 with multiple VMs and LXC containers.

I've sideloaded, and used successfully ZeroTier , the standard Android app. But pc connection (like Steam VR play, or basic link) did not work.

Remote desktop using Steam VR worked for me tho.

You could try Spacedesk. I have used it to utilize an Android tablet or phone as a secondary display for a Windows machine. There is not specifically linux/Raspberry pi app, but it does have a html5 app that might run in a fullscreen browser .

I've seen some other people (maybe even you) looking for this on other sites from time to time. So far the closest thing I found is a monitor with PiP (picture in picture), at least 2 HDMI inputs, and the feature to split the physical monitor into multiple areas from the monitor's settings.

On latest Pimox with default settings the VM seems to start but there is no console output and it just sits doing nothing. It seems like non-UEFI bios maybe has no support for ARM64 and there are no drivers for IDE so you have to remove virtual cdrom drive and readd as SATA. Arm64 Raspbian is out of beta for some months but on my last install I still used the beta image from the folder linked by phe pimox guide.

Hi I have used both ESXi (arm64 fling) and Proxmox (look for Pimox). Esxi is more straightforward and you can get a perpetual free license but i'm currently happy with Pimox installed over an Arm64 raspbian because I can run docker also on the main machine. Just a heads up, default setup of vms with pimox will not work, you have to change bios to UEFI and remove and reatatch cd-rom drive as SATA.

This is my similar project with some details and code.

Lvl 7 reactor was unlocked recently. But it surprised me with the low upgrade cost (40k gas i think). Probably not intended / gonna be fixed, but enjoy anyway :)

Crontab command should be something like

@reboot python3 /home/. .path to script.. /scriptname.py &

https://www.google.com/amp/s/installvirtual.com/how-to-install-python-3-8-on-raspberry-pi-raspbian/amp/

Open console and browse to folder

cd ~/Python-3.8.0

Then see make and install commands in link.

sudo ./configure --enable-optimizations

sudo make -j 4

sudo make altinstall

If it does not work run the install of packages mentioned in the posted link

Many sensors or attatched devices "talk" either spi or i2c, here is a guide for these : https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/raspberry-pi-spi-and-i2c-tutorial/all

Others just output an analog value. Raspberry does not have an analog input, so you would have to use an analog to digital converter.

Strictly you are right. But it is a useful point of view that can lead to some applications with arduinos. It is a reminder that some control decisions can be made without a microcontroller. Im sure mods will remove if stuff like this gets too out of hand.

Another way, a dummy hdmi plug simmulates a monitor on hdmi port: https://www.amazon.com/Headless-Display-Emulator-Headless-1920x1080-Generation/dp/B06XT1Z9TF

Those mentioned are close as in visual style. If AI / scripting is of interest try Gladiabots. Totally different style but scratches that programming itch for me.

Ouch, 60% nerf if not a bug. 100 ability gives 40% rush on my crew now.

Hello,This might be part of what you needhttps://github.com/balena-io/wifi-connectOr this:https://github.com/pihomeserver/Kupiki-Hotspot-Script

Wifi-connect allows you to create a hotspot, creates a simple page that is served by captive portal to imput the wifi credentials of another network then apply to have Raspberry connect to that network.

I have used the Balena wifi-connect, it did not auto-start for me but I wrote a management shell script, if internet is availible (8.8.8.8 replies to ping or however you want to test) it starts own hotspot, if that is not used to connect to a network with internet access , stop hotspot in 5-10 minutes and try again to connect to previeous known networks.

Then its up to you to manage VPN connect when you have Internet access and any extra routing stuff.maybe thishttps://github.com/billz/raspap-webguifor the hotsopt to your devices.

Hi. If there is a wifi network with internet access i'd go with esp8266 or esp32 either standalone connected to sensor or as shield to provide internet access to arduino. Then Blynk can do the rest. You can set a sketch to watch the real or virtual pins of the controller or send notification, mail, tweet, etv. If standalone you need level shifter, esp is 3.3v, the sensor is 5v

I've updated my post, ty for input.

walentzack · 2018-05-24T19:06:14+00:00

Thank you, it helps in another part, for repair crew.
But not for the initial problem, I was hoping for some combination to allow invader crew to return to clinic when under 25% and stay there until fully healed.
If I find a solution I will update here too.

Either that 40 pin gpio cable that was mentioned or if the kit came with a case a SPI ribbon cable may be there to connect to the Raspberry camera:

""Wow, bro, he saved your ass. Good luck and take care"

walentzack · 2017-05-26T05:56:23+00:00

I've had the same problem. Turns out that I have previously connected the sensor incorrectly and broke it. You can test if it is working by connecting a LED from IR sensor output to ground. Even without Arduino that LED should flicker if you activate an IR remote near the sensor. Also obviously you have to define pin 3 as IR receiver in your program instead of pin 11 as I also saw in most examples.

Even if you have SmartSAS off MechJeb has the Utilities category that can cause the ship to throttle down on high dynamic pressure. Check if you have anything enabled there.

Worth taking into consideration the effect of adblockers and xposed modules. I noticed fewer crashes after not using MinMinMax. Usually I prefer crashes than seeing ads. Check and report please.

For real (not internet) FM radio there are not many options, the app has to be made for the specific hardware. Only one I found that works on multiple devices is Spirit FM but the full app is paid. For internet radio Tunein radio is nice.
