Hi,

Proxmox version: 5.1-46

VM configuration:
CPU: 1 socket, 12 cores
RAM: 16096 MB
Disk: 200 GB VirtIO Block
Network: VirtIO bridged (vlan tagged)

I can start the installer, configure the network, set time and hostname, but when I get to the partition section it fails with:

No root file system is defined.

Please correct this from the partioning menu.

I'm attempting to run the "VM" install option from the official installation ISO. Should I be using the "Bare" option instead?

It works,
on promox as KVM machine..
Use bare install method

Yep, I was using KVM, and the bare metal install worked.

Can I ask what the "VM" install is for?

Create a VM linux type in proxmox

add a disk , attache iso as cdrom

Install should work ( add nic able to reach internet as well ) ....

BTW: give enough CPU/RAM to EVE ( at least 4GB for small labs )
