A clear and concise description of the issue.

Hi!
I am trying to install the Turnkey Owncloud VM using the default settings and choosing local-lvm for storage. I end up with a VM with a disc size of 692M (shown under the VM's "Hardware" in Proxmox). When starting the VM I get to the "Debian Installer Live". There I am asked too choose "Partitioning method". When I choose "Guided - use entire disk and set LVM", I get this error message:
"Failed to partition the selected disk
This probably happened because the selected disc or free space is too small to be automatically partitioned
"

Thanks for the help and for many great scripts!

What settings are you currently utilizing?

Default Settings

Which Linux distribution are you employing?

Debian 12

If relevant, including screenshots or a code block can be helpful in clarifying the issue.

No response

  1. Run the script: bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/raw/main/vm/owncloud-vm.sh)"
  2. choose local-lvm for storage
  3. Start the VM

The disk with size 692M is the bootdisk. You need to add another disk for storage to partition.

add-disk
partition

Yes of course... I should have understood that. I guess the info on the webpage (https://community-scripts.github.io/Proxmox/scripts?id=ownCloud), made me expect to see a 8GB disk created by the script.

Thanks!
