Hey everyone,
I finally got around to converting my bare metal machine into a VM with UNRAID, I've been running it on a different system for awhile now but wanted to convert my gaming rig (7900x) to handle both duties. Anyhow, I was able to get passthrough working for both the GPU, USB, nvme drive and another sata hdd. The problem I'm having is handling the boot order. I can change it from the BIOS, but obviously it doesn't save it when I power cycle the VM. Is there any work around for this? I'm kind of at a loss at this point as to how to proceed. Any help is always appreciated. Thanks!
Attached is my XML for the VM:
