OpenWrt on Proxmox

Hi,
I'm trying to install openwrt on a Proxmox VM.
Because Openwrt is a .img and not a .iso image I can't load it directly.
So I tried :

wget https://archive.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.1/targets/x86/64/openwrt-18.06.1-x86-64-combined-ext4.img.gz

gunzip openwrt-18.06.1-x86-64-combined-ext4.img.gz

qm importdisk XXX openwrt-18.06.1-x86-64-combined-ext4.img local-lvm

where XXX is the number of the VM
I also tried (as I saw on another post here) to use this command :

dd if=openwrt-18.06.1-x86-generic-combined-ext4.img of=/dev/pve/vm-XXX-disk-1

But when I boot up I have: No bootable drive found

Thank you for your help
Jules

I'm not familiar with the Proxmox VM system, but there may be some hints in https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/virtualization/virtualbox-vm that could lead you to a way to convert a raw image to the format that Proxmox needs.

Thank you
I had already read these but I've succeed with this one:


Convert img to raw and replace it in the directory.
Thank you
Let's begin configuration now
