Ubuntu server 20.04.3 LTS fail to install with virtio block
Matthew Barrera 
As usual, I want to create a VM with VirtIO Block on my Proxmox server but since a month the installation fail, but if I choose SCSI as bus it work.
I have kubuntu, xubuntu, debian, openmediavault and univention all installed with the same virtual configuration which is mainly all virtIO
- cpu: host
- hd: virtio with cache write-back and discard option enabled
- lan: virtio and they all work well.
for my ubuntu server I tried
- hd: virtio with cache write-back and discard option enabled
- hd: virtio with cache default (no cache) and discard option enabled
- hd: virtio with cache default (no cache) and discard option disabled
- hd: scsi with cache write-back and discard option enabled
and it only works when I choose SCSI which it is new for me, because since 16.04 I always installed my Ubuntu server with virtio
Does anybody experience a similar situation ?
here the end of crash log:
since I'm limited to 30000 charaters
