You saved the iso in /mmt/user/isos/ but you look for it in /mnt/user/ISO…

Awsome work!! Got it to work with Radeon Rx580 passthrough as well.

Nice to be able to explore the new win11 however I can not say that I am very impressed with the new features so far. It looks mostly like a pretty skin on windows 10 and microsoft trying to steal more of my privacy.

lol yep sorry I must have been still asleep when I did that I found it.

Worked perfectly following this guide.  Thanks.

 

I have not spent much time with Windows 11 so far, but it does not appear to be too much different than Windows 10 on the surface other than some things being rearranged.  Probably most of the "improvements" are under the hood.

I see it's still got that half-arsed mixture of Win 10 vs Win 7 control panel components

This is going to be another Windows Vista!

Were is the new operating system they having been rhyming lyrical to the public about, this is 99.8% Windows 10/7 code

 

Am I the only one that the UUP stuff just never works for? I've even disabled my dns level ad blocker and it just ALWAYS errors and says it can't download file. (it downloads some but not others) any ideas?

i'm having similar issues - just keeps reporting errorcode 22 and 403's

 

edit: actually disabling my pi-hole - i have seen a change of state ... so maybe i spoke to soon

 

edit2: so it eventually errored out - restarted the container wiht pihole disabled - we'll see if that provides a different outcome - i was able to grab some of the packages but not all of them so i'm hoping its just an intermittent issue

I've followed the instructions to a T. However once starting the VM and opening a VNC window I get the UEFI shell and nothing proceeds. What am I doing wrong? All settings are per the video.

I changed the BIOS to Seabios and it worked...

Any luck? Mine still absolutely refuses to work. I have attached my aria2_download log incase someone has any ideas.

aria2_download.log

When that happens, try typing 'exit' at the shell prompt and it should proceed normally from there.

Thanks. Didn't know that. Win11 now running exactly per @SpaceInvaderOne. Updated and running fine.

no dice - tried everything - eventually gave up - was only doing this for fun anyways

 

i do not know why the iso itself wasn't just shared - this seems overly complicated unless the tooling is building an iso unique to your hardware

Because microsoft doesn't allow it.

that explains it

Worked perfect for me using SpaceInvaders settings.

 

Is there a way a legitimate way to enter a Product Key / Activation method?

 

Here is how to enter product key. Takes a while for the script to run.. be patient.

Thank you Ed!

Also giving up I guess. I've tried everything I can think of I was using 1.1.12 and 9.9.9.9 for dns, i switched to opendns and still no go. Seems like this container works for 99% of people and there is really no support for the few of us that have issues trying to figure it out (which is totally fine, I'm not complaining about it) Odd thing is if I try to run the scripts on a windows machine I get similar errors. So it could very well be my network. Maybe something is getting caught up or blocked by the honey pot or something in the UDM, but it shouldn't be an issue as it pulls directly from microsoft servers and windows update works just fine.

I tries to get this app working as well but failed every time.

I'm running Unifi pro-4 Router running IDS and found the cause to my issues in my router Logs.

It sees the traffic as a trojan here is one of the hundreds of blocks my router did.

I am not accusing SpaceinvaderOne of anything!

I ran this app 3 different time and my Router is full of these the hole time it was running.

Hope this helps anyone else that is having issues and see if anyone else sees the same?

So this would be my problem as well I would imagine since we are both using Ubiquiti hardware. IPS is enabled on mine as well. Just seems very odd that this supposedly gets the files directly from Microsoft update servers and windows update works just fine.

Will the container be updated for the next preview release or will uup automagically just grab the newest?

@SpaceInvaderOne what is the likelihood of removing the option to define custom ISO filename and instead automatically naming the ISOs based on their version number? I see the docker was updated last night (presumably to download the newer release of the windows 11 preview).
