Hi, I recently created a USB bootable installation media from my previous
Windows 10 installation using a Microsoft media creation tool. In addition to
the installation media, it contains info about my product key somehow. I've
done this before moving from HDD to SSD.
[dom0] mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt
[dom0] ls /mnt
Here's the file contents of the base directory of the only partition of the usb:
autorun.inf
bootmgr
bootmgf.efi
boot
efi
MediaMeta.xml
setup.exe
sources
support
Fdisk -l tell me that the first and only usb partition (/dev/sdd1) is marked as
bootable. The partition type is W95 FAT32 (LBA).
My bios also successfully boots into the device.
Here's what I've tried so far:
[dom0] qvm-create win10 --hvm --label green
[dom0] qvm-start --cdrom /dev/sdd win10
[win10] Booting from CD-Rom...
7663MB medium detected
CDROM boot failure code : 0005
Boot from CD-Rom failed: could not read the boot disk
[dom0] qvm-start --cdrom /dev/sdd1
Same output
[dom0] qvm-start --hd /dev/sdd
CDROM boot failure code : 0002
..
Boot from Hard Disk failed: not a bootable disk
[dom0] qvm-start --hd /dev/sdd1
Same output
[dom0] dd if=/dev/sdd of=/windows.img
(all the enumerations of trying windows.img)
[dom0] dd if=/dev/sdd1 of=/windows_sdd1.img
(all the enumerations of trying this image)
I've run out of things to try. I cannot boot into the old Windows install to
get the product key since I cloned it to a new drive, so I can't go the iso
route easily.
I'm running Qubes 3.2 with the latest dom0 updates.
Can anyone help me get this USB to boot into an HVM?
