[Users] .img file for win2008 controller driver?
Windows 2008 R2 install hits a point where it cannot find the disks, and asks for driver. I assume I need a .img file to mount to virtual floppy. I cannot seem to locate this, can someone point me in the right direction? Is this supposed to be included with the base ovirt install? Thanks, jonathan This is a PRIVATE message.

Re: [Users] .img file for win2008 controller driver?
if you're using virtio for a Windows VM then you'll need virtio drivers, since these aren't included in the Windows install image. If you've got a rhel or rhev entitlement then these are on RHN, otherwise you can download drivers from the fedora project [1]. These are signed but not WHQL'd certified but should install fine. it looks like there's not a VFD there now just an ISO, not quite sure why I'll ask the maintainer - you might need to hotplug the CD during install or copy them into a VFD.

Re: [Users] .img file for win2008 controller driver?
I did swap in the .iso file from there, but even if I manually pick the driver, and then the installer finally sees the disk, but 2008R2 still refuses to install “ to that disk”. Any other tips I can try?
