🔥 In this video, I test running **Unraid INSIDE Proxmox**… is this the ultimate homelab combo or a terrible idea? I walk through the full setup, including getting Unraid to actually boot inside a VM (which was NOT as straightforward as I expected 😅), and show you what worked, what didn’t, and whether this setup is worth it for your lab.
