Ipfire on proxmox vm with raspberry pi 5 pve host

do you know if it is possible to have ipfire in vm on an rpi5 currently installed with proxmox?
I’m stuck on a black screen at boot
thank you for your response

Your platform ist not supported by IPFire: www.ipfire.org - Raspberry Pi 5

A HV won’t help out here.

Did you install the firmware?: pve-edk2-firmware-aarch64

I have it running like that as a backup firewall. The ARM port of PROXMOX on a Pi5 running Arm64 version of ipfire - works fine and speeds are good. I get 625mbps download and 740mbps uplaod through it on my 900mbps connection.

My prime ipfire is running on a N150 with 4 nics and I get over 900mbps both ways from that so the performance drop is not too bad running on the pi5 as a backup.

Hope that helps

Yes, this is indeed surprisingly good. But I suppose the Raspberry Pi 5 is not any more what a Raspberry Pi used to be - also in terms of price and power consumption.
