Windows 7 installation problem

Post by StoneCold » Tue Oct 24, 2017 10:10 am

Hi guys,

I'm trying to make a Win 7 Pro image to use with eve.

I'm using Uldis' video instructions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxmYmKVQZpo)

Everything is clear, but as soon as I want to install Win 7, it doesn't detect the hard drive, so I can't install it :(

Did I do something wrong, or what can I do to solve the problem?

Regards
SC

Hi,

i have same problem. I chose driver from floppy drive b, and windows install it. But it still wont show hard drive. Hard drive virtioa.qcow2 is created in /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/win-7test# folder.

Regards,

Sasa.

first eve must be updated to the newest version 86 current one.
Next READ carefully where the hdd driver is located, !!!!!!!!!!

When windows installation ask to choose a hdd where Windows will be installed, choose Load driver, Browse, choose FDD B/storage/2003R2/AMD64 or 86/, (AMD or x86 depends which version of windows you are installing 64 or 32 bit), click next and you will see HDD RedHat VIRTIO SCSI HDD now.
