Hello everyone,
It's a couple days I'm struggling with a Windows Server 2016 migration. Here what I've done:
Booted from the iso installation image and successfully re-installed vioscsi.inf (from the latest version linked on proxmox wiki) with the following command:
Then exited and tried to boot Windows but got BSOD with the famous error:
---
I've tried many combinations, with standard BIOS it doesn't recognize boot device and setting the disk image as SATA or IDE device doesn't boot with a different error:
It really looks like something driver related, but I have no idea on how to boot that.
Additional info:
- If I try to re-install Windows, after driver install, I can see the virtual drive.
- If I assign the virtual drive to another Windows VM with virtio drivers I can see and browse it.
It's a couple days I'm struggling with a Windows Server 2016 migration. Here what I've done:
- Installed VirtIO drivers on the phisical srv (even if probably it's useless)
- Exported a qcow2 image with Starwind P2V Converter
- Imported the qcow2 on proxmox and created a vm with following settings
Code:
