How to install almalinux remotely via VNC?

astrovps

If we have a dedicated server that has Almalinux installed and we want to reinstall it but we don't have iKVM/IPMI/IP KVM access, how to reinstall it remotely via VNC?

You can't, at least not safely.
Go to the computer room, plug in a monitor, and do the reinstall there.

3. Install QEMU ($ apt-get install qemu);
4. Download ProxMox ISO (Select last ISO image on https://www.proxmox.com/en/downloads) and save locally in proxmox.iso file;
5. Start QEMU Emulator ($ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 -k it -hda /dev/sda -hdb /dev/sdb -cdrom proxmox.iso -boot d -vnc :0);

The same thing, you can do with any .iso of your choice.
