If it isn't working you may need to change on the edited line the "ro" to "rw", so the end of the line would say " rw quiet init=/bin/bash".

Hi,

I'm using Proxmox and can't access the GRUB menu. I tried pressing Esc and shift and saw the following options:

Virtio-scsi drive qemu qemu harddisk +
IPXE (PCI 00:12.0)
Legacy option ROM

When I try to select any option, it just reboots directly. Any ideas?

Thanks!
