Hi there look, i am trying to install & boot Porteus 5.0.1 under Virtual Machine inside Proxmox to mount a server
The thing is i was complete the installation but when i try to boot from the installed Porteus on /dev/sda1
Just show a message say "Porteus Data Not Found"
i try to boot using :
from=/dev/sda1 -> Just says "from= cheatcode is incorrect, press enter to search through all device"
delay=30 -> does nothing
root=/dev/sda1 -> does not work
Why grub installer are not incluided on porteus live ?
In the "site" where the user goes when appears the message "Porteus data not found" is really (initramfs)?
- If this is true, why tools like blkid or fdisk are not available on this env?
How is the correct way to modify permanently "delay" from 10 to 30 ?

1 - Yes
2 - No, Porteus during boot from hard drive disk does not detect the device /dev/sda1 for unknow reasons

Before that i just got two question ?
1 - scsi devices are modules are not part of porteus kernel ? i say because when porteus installed on a "scsi hard disk drive" was uncapable of found it on /dev/ like /dev/sda1 for example.
2 - how i can make a custom initramfs on porteus
