I have a problem with the installation of OPNsense 20.7 in Proxmox 6.2-10. It restarts before starting the installation and in /var/log/syslog in Proxmox, appears: SVM: KVM: Guest triggered AMD Erratum 383.

Try the OPNsense 20.1 installer but it also restarts, although it does so during file copying on installation.

I have Proxmox 6.2-10 on a HPE ProLiant MicroServer, with an AMD Turion (tm) II Neo N54L Dual-Core processor, 6 GB of RAM and 250 GB of disk.

I create the VM using 1 processor core, 1 GB of RAM and 10 GB of disk.

I tried what is suggested in [1]: Change CPU Type kmv64 to qemu64; test with UEFI BIOS (and create partition) instead of SeaBIOS; SCSI and IDE disk; i440fx and q35 machine; install amd64-microcode. I even reinstalled Proxmox to test with version 6.2-4, but none of this worked.

In contrast, pfSense Community 2.4.5 installs without problem in Proxmox 6.2-10.

Any solution ideas?

Hi there, running almost the same setup, though, I am running default cpu(kvm64) 2 cores, 4GB ram and 32GB HD machine type i440fx(default), my Proxmox version is 6.2-10. This setup runs on OVMF, UEFI. It's running on a Supermicro-A2SDi-HLN4F(3758) for about 2 months now, I have a few minor issues I'm still investigating, but it runs for weeks without major problems.

You could try a little more ram, though, 512MB should even be enough(bare metal).
Did you try to set it up with cpu(kvm64)? you said you changed it but not if you tested it  ;)
Which ISO did you use? - this one I used..(OPNsense-20.1-OpenSSL-dvd-amd64.iso)

The notification(SVM: KVM: Guest triggered AMD Erratum 383) seems to exist for a while.. I don't know if there are solutions to implement on Proxmox or the OPNsense VM, maybe someone else has an idea about this.

I also scanned trough the post(s) you linked to, but I don't recognize my setup in this, fiber 1G speed is about reached, I did not intensively test everything since all my machines and connection are quite new;)

I have the same problem with new installation OPNsense 20.7 in Proxmox 6.2-11.
Previous version OPNsense 20.1 starts normal, but when upgrade to 20.7 again reboots in circle. U can see the last message before reboot in attachment.

Hi, still running without any issues on 6.2-11..
I would say something is different on your installations than on mine...
Is your disk 'VirtIO SCSI'?

BTW: 'Use tablet for pointer:  no'
