Hello,
I have a Beelink S12 Mini mini PC that I use as a Proxmox server (bare-metal installation). For some time now, the system has been completely freezing, especially when updating virtual machines — notably Home Assistant, which is installed as a VM via Proxmox.
Once frozen, the system becomes totally unresponsive: no access via SSH or the Proxmox web interface.
🛠️ System Configuration:
- Model: Beelink S12 Mini
- CPU: Intel N5095
- RAM: 8 GB originally → upgraded to 16 GB for testing (no improvement)
- Storage: 256 GB SSD
- OS: Proxmox VE (latest available version)
⚠️ Symptoms:
- Full system freeze during moderately heavy operations (e.g., VM updates)
- Requires a hard reset to reboot
- Reboot is not immediate — I often have to wait several minutes before the machine powers on properly again
- I also managed to trigger a freeze during a CPU stress test
✅ What I’ve Tried So Far:
Checked Pro
- xmox logs (journalctl, dmesg, syslog) → nothing conclusive
- RAM tested → no errors
- CPU and GPU temperatures are normal
- Fully updated Proxmox
❓ Looking for Suggestions:
Has anyone experienced similar issues with this model?
Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!
