New Proxmox VM with Home Assistant

This script will create a new Proxmox VM with the latest version of Home Assistant. To create a new VM, run the following in a SSH session or the console from Proxmox interface

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/whiskerz007/proxmox_hassos_install/raw/master/install.sh)"

After script completes, click on the new VM (the script will tell you the ID), click on the Hardware tab for the VM and change the Memory and Processors settings to what you desire. The Hard Disk can be expanded by clicking on it, then click on the Resize disk button above (Note: additional steps must be taken for storage to take effect in the VM after the first boot). The network MAC address can be changed by selecting Network Device and clicking Edit above. Once all changes have been made, click Start above.

Root Prompt

To get to the root prompt

  • Open the console after the VM has been started
  • When the messages slow down press the Enter key a couple of times until you see the following

Welcome to Home Assistant
homeassistant login:
  • Login using root, no password is requested
  • When you see the hassio > prompt, type login
  • You should now see a # prompt.

Add a serial port

By adding a serial port, you are able to use a different interface to interact with the VM. When you click on the down arrow next to Console you will be able to use xterm.js which enables you to Right-Click and get access to Copy and Paste functions. If the serial port was already added by the install script, no further actions are required to enable the functionality.

  • Click on the VM in the list of containers at the left side panel
  • Click Hardware tab located beside the list of containers
