Hi

I'm trying to install windows server 2019 essential version on proxmox Virtual Environment 5.2-10. I tried to use drive virtio as harddisk, I used virtio-win-0.1.141.iso but does not recognize any drivers. Unfortunately disk ide or sata are not supported by windows server 2019. Can anyone help me, it's very urgent. Thank you to everyone.

where can I download a evaluation ISO (win 2019)?
 
I already found this page but I see "We are currently working on making the Windows Server 2019 evaluation media available" - so no ISO for me.
 
Looks not like a trusted source for windows ISO images for me.

I'm sorry I did not find anything on the net.
But on the site it is written:

Disclaimerfoxsoftwares.com do not provide any cracks, keygen, activation or license keys for Windows Server 2019 ISO Free Download Offline Installer

Now i have find another another link for iso trial

Please if you can help me I have to install the server in production.

Thanks

Currently there is not even an official beta download from MS, but you want to run in production? Seems not the best plan to me ...

Tom you're absolutely right but I bought the server license in Microsoft and now only sell window server 2019.
I can not install windows server 2016 which expires in 2020..

Do you agree with me?
 
I downloaded the iso from your last link and installed it successfully, using the Windows 10 drivers.
(VirtIO Scsi, VirtIO nic). Windows 2019 seems quite identical to Win 10. So no problems for Proxmox VE.
 
do not use old virtio drivers, please use virtio-win-0.1.160.
it was just quick install test to check if it will detect the disk - only this version of old virtio iso was on the machine - by saying 'it works fine' i meant 'it detected disk' even with 134 version
 
using the Windows 10 drivers.

I also tried to install using "virtio scsi" disk with the windows 10 drivers from the version virtio-win-0.1.160 but it does not work.
Please You can send me a detail of the configuration.
