Also the "run once" option using the floppy does not work as there's simply no floppy in the setup guide visible (or any other device with the drivers on it). There's no need for a floppy device. Steps to take (with oVirt 4.1.9 and Virtio-SCSI disk in VM): 1. "Run once" - "Boot Options" - "Attach CD" to attach the Windows 2016R2 ISO 2. Windows setup starts in console window 3. Choose "Install Windows only" 4. Windows setup presents "Where do you want to install Windows?" 5. oVirt "Change CD" - choose oVirt-toolsSetup-4.15.fc24.iso (has to be in ISO domain) 6. Windows setup "Load driver" - "No signed drivers found" - OK - "Browse" - navigate to CD ROM drive "vioscsi - win2016r2 - amd64" folder - driver is highlighted - Next 7. Windows setup presents "Drive 0 Unallocated Space" (with warning: "Windows can't be installed on this device") 8. oVirt "Change CD" - choose Windows 2016R2 ISO 9. Windows setup "Refresh" 10. Warning disappears - Press "Next" Matthias ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Re: [ovirt-users] Install Windows VM issues
Hi Markus, you need to use the "run onces" option, to be able to insert the floppy.

[ovirt-users] Install Windows VM issues
Hi! I'm new here - hope you can forgive my "newbie questions". I want to install a Server 2016 - so I uploaded both the Windows ISO and the virtio drivers iso to the ISO Domain location. In the VM Options I can choose both ISO files. But as refered in a Howto, I need to use a Floppy device with a flv file. I found the FLV drivers file, but I cannot find any Floppy device - there's no option to choose. So I tried to add a second CD-Rom because in Proxmox that already did work. But I cannot find any option to add a second CD-Rom too. Any idea how I can provide the drivers for the windows installation? Thanks for any help!
