groupadd -g 10000 lxc_shares

Migrate Windows 2000 VM from VMware Player to Proxmox

Hey guys, me again. After a day of testing and fucking with VMware/Proxmox/The VM itself, i finially got it working!!!!

I just wanted to come back and make another post to firstly thank everyone who helped me figure this out. So many awesome suggestions. Moment of silence for those awesome people and the sheer amount of people at that! Glad to be a part of this community. Couldn't have done it without you guys!

Now, on to the second part. As i promissed, i am going to walk through all the steps i took to go from a VMware Player 12 VM to a glorious Proxmox VM.
