🌟 Briefly describe the feature

changeable or Seperate Default ID

📝 Detailed description

Hi,

I'm a beginner in Linux/Proxmox.

Problem:

Every LXC or LM (didnt try LM) has the same Default ID = 100. As a noob it is quit unkomfortable to change the ID after the installation.

Feature:

I my mind two solutions:

  1. Fix ID for every toll in a Category sort asc. (100 steps)
  2. Even on default there is just one more message box asking the user about the ID

💡 Why is this useful?

  1. When u are new to Linux it confuses the user.
  2. "QoL" / comfort
  3. Getting new people into Linux/Proxmox and reduses stress -> more free advertisement

Ps.: I know there is the advanced mode but this feature should make it even easier.

I dont really know what your issue here is?
When you use default settings, we just take the next availible ID.
The script dose not just always take ID 100 when selected default.

Also, it dose not matter what id a VM or LXC gets, what matters is that it is not used already. For that reason we just take the next free ID.

Ok the it is the second default problem after "turned you off and on again" -> "Problem is infront the monitor".

I installed some tool, tried it out and decide "ah its nothing for me", deleted the container both had the ID 100 and I interpret it as the problem I asked a solution for.
