Yeah, just started using VMs in Unraid again after a long hiatus and I'm honestly shocked to see that it's not included. Previously it was all command line, so it was pretty much do it yourself or it didn't happen, but with the modern GUI comes modern expectations and snapshots are pretty much a necessity for any VM host.

Just an addendum - you can load the drivers during the network setup process if you like. Hit SHIFT + F10 to get a command line open Switch to the location of the virtio iso (in my case, E:) and change to the NetKVM\w11\amd64 directory cd e:\NetKVM\w11\amd64 Install the driver pnputil -i -a netkvm.inf Network should now be detected. Close the command prompt and continue.

I had the same issue, so thanks for the solution. Any chance you can fill us in on what the purpose of the EFI folder is and why it needed to be renamed?

Hi all. I have an interesting (I hope) dilemma. I love unRAID and the way it manages hard drive capacity for me. I also have no desire to run two separate machines for storage and for media serving/playing. I know that XBMC runs happily on a G3220 with plenty of CPU left for unRAID to do its thing. The problem lies in the fact that the G3220 doesn't support vt-d, so I'm left needing a solution where I can get the media player running natively to get both to coexist. Having read through the forums, it seems like there's a possibility of running unRAID 6 on a full Slackware install which should allow me to do what I need. I've been using Linux for about 20 years, so I can handle the dependency hell that's going to come from installing and maintaining Slackware, but I'd rather not reinvent the wheel if it's been done before. My question therefore is two-part: 1) Has anyone done what I'm looking to do with unRAID 6 and do you have any tips? 2) Would it be possible to port to a system with a package manager and if so, what pitfalls might arise if I do so? Thanks in advance for any replies.
