Dear All, Is there any ready to go template / image available for Windows version OS in the market?
I am still trying hard to run the Windows 7 OS, but either stays at Blue Screen or says Boot Disk not found. I have tried the suggested work around but seems like I am not able to make up. The same image when booted using qemu or virt-viewer works perfect.
