Re: [Users] windows 8 guest support
Hi Itamar, I tried installing windows8 enterprise 32 bit as ovirt guest but bootloader failed to load with error 0x5d . host machine support vt vt-d. Same thing is happening while installing windows 8 in centos 6.2 host. windows8 is not listed in guest support option in ovirt 3.1/rhel 6.3. some google results showed that its because windows 8 is not supporting IDE. There is no option for sata controller in any of the above virtualization solutions. If its happening due to some other thing could you please let me know the how to make it work.

OSs (since 3.2 added them to list of OSs). second, ronen - are there community available virtio-block drivers for windows 8 Jithin can try to install with? (Jithin, you would need to attach a virtual floppy (vfd) to the guest during guest OS install to provide it with the driver).

Re: [Users] windows 8 guest support
I have same issue with Windows 8 32-bit. HOWEVER! 64-bit does install fine and work well. No qxl driver will load and no vsd process will run (wrong windows version error - working on git source compile now).

Re: [Users] windows 8 guest support
Hi Itamar, I tried floppy as well with virtio-win package. Attaching vfd floppy may not help since for me even windows installer itself is not starting.
