         # download the ova
         wget -O TurnKey.ova https://laotzu.ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/turnkeylinux/images/ova/turnkey-core-16.1-buster-amd64.ova
         # extract the downloaded ova
         tar xvf TurnKey.ova
         # create a new vm from the ova
         # usage
         # qm importovf ≪unused vmid≫ ≪path to ova≫ ≪destination storage pool name≫ [OPTIONS]
         qm importovf 300 ./turnkey-core-16.1-buster-amd64.ovf HDD_500GB --format qcow2
   03. After the VM has been successfully imported, open a web browser and navigate to the ProxMox VE web UI
