Ubuntu 18.04 VFIO GPU passthrough with a single GPU (onboard automatically disables itself)

Hardware

https://www.reddit.com/r/JDM_WAAAT/comments/8zgkfj/server_build_nas_killer_v_20_the_terminator_dual/ 2x X5650 from this thread Aside from that build guide, a generic USB3 card and an AMD R9-200

Grub

Modify /etc/default/grub and add vfio-pci.ids=dead:beef video=efifb:off to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT (use the PCI vid/pid of your primary GPU, not dead:beef)

Steps for creating an Ubuntu 18.04 cloud template

Using a ready-to-use Ubuntu image

Proxmox VE 6.x release includes a feature to add custom cloud-init configs. Unfortunately there is poor documentation, so I had to figure this out by adding pieces of information together.

The custom cloud-init files (user-data, meta-data, network-config)

The cloud-init files need to be stored in a snippet. This is not very well documented:

Go to Storage View -> Storage -> Add -> Directory
Give it an ID such as snippets, and specify any path on your host such as /snippets
Under Content choose Snippets and de-select Disk image (optional)
Upload (scp/rsync/whatever) your user-data, meta-data, network-config files to your proxmox server in /snippets/snippets/ (the directory should be there if you followed steps 1-3)

On the host

Ensure these modules are loaded

cat /proc/sys/net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-iptables

Disable swap

sysctl vm.swappiness=0
swapoff -a
