Re: [ovirt-users] Windows 10 floppy not found during setup

[Christophe TREFOIS]

VMs use a vNIC on ovirtmgmt logical network. There should be nothing to do with 
the engine itself.

It was working fine for us after we are able to load the drivers properly.

Re: [ovirt-users] Windows 10 floppy not found during setup

[Vincent Royer]

Thanks I tried it and it did in fact work.  Just threw me off because all
the instructions say to load the floppy.

My windows install got right up to the point where it was loading the NICs,
and then it all came crashing down.  I expected the VMs and the engine to
be able to share the same NIC, but I suppose it doesn't work that way.

We had to do the swapping CD trick for Windows 10 yes.

[ovirt-users] Windows 10 floppy not found during setup

[Vincent Royer]

I am trying to install Windows 10 on Ovirt 4.2

I pushed the virtio-win iso and vfd files to my ISO domain.   I created the
VM and loaded the CD rom with the windows install ISO and in the "run once"
settings I chose the virtio-win selection as a floppy.  However when
entering windows setup, there is no drive to install to, and no floppy
shows up in the usual place to install the drivers.

the installation did succeed when selecting "IDE" as the target disk
instead of the virtio or virtio-SCSI options.

Is there any way to install the drivers after the fact and then change the
disk mode from IDE to virtio?

Is the method on this page
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/virtual-machines/create-a-windows-7-virtual-machine/

still relevant?  Looks like they suggest swapping the CD disk once the
windows setup has begun.

Thanks!
