How about setting one of them to the vms and the other one to the unraid server, because I got the "one or more network protocols are missing" error on either one of the vms when I only use eth0. If I assign eth1 to vm1, the error appears on vm2, vice versa.
The syslinux bit essentially removes the NICs from Unraid to be used solely by VMs... I'm quite confused now.
I thought you had two different NICs and you wanted to passthrough one to one VM and the other to another VM....
I think if you posted a bit more info on your config it might help clear things up and exact details of your hardware..
Sorry for the confusion, my motherboard is ASUS Z97 Sabertooth Mark S (which have two lan ports, does this count as two nics or one? one of them is realtek and the other one is intel)
Could I assign the realtek one to vm1, and intel one to vm2? Or do I need another one for the unraid server itself?
