Any VM creation is ending up with this

[ref1ux]

Hi Everyone !

What I'm doing wrong with setting up my VM's ?

For Windows 11 i followed the exact steps of the guide of Spaceinvader One on Youtube and for Macinabox i followed the guide of The Geek Freaks.

Windows 11 is not booting just showing this in the attached files. Macinabox is booting and i installed it.

But after this on next booting the allmost same result.

 

My System Configuration :

AMD Ryzen 5 3600

Gigabyte A320M-H

Apacer Panther 32GB DDR4-3200

WDC PC SN520 512GB as Disk 1

Parity: HGST Travelstar 5K1000 1000GB

Cache: Intenso Top Performance 512GB

For windows 11 there's no hd with a filesystem FS0, so I can think you are still trying to install it?

I think you need to be fast enough with opening vnc to see the "press a key to boot from cd/dvd" or something similar.

If you are not fast enough it falls back to the uefi shell.

If you can't be fast enough, once you are in the uefi shell, type:

FS0:
cd efi\boot
bootx64.efi

Press enter after entering each line and at the end the installer should start.

By "installed" you mean that for the first time you are able to get the mac os desktop?

If this is the case, in the second screenshot I can see you have a disk with FS0, do the same as above and see if it boots from the disk:

FS0:
cd efi\boot
bootx64.efi

 

If it boots we will see how to make the boot from hd persistent.

Hey thank you for your fast help! Windows 11 ist working now fine, i really just wasn't fast enough.

 

But Macinabox is still not working. 

FS0:\efi\boot is not a directory.

Should i edit something in the vm config?

Attach the unraid diagnostic file so that I can have a look.

You can also enter exit or quit at that prompt and you may get bumped into the bios where you can re-select the boot device manually (giving you another chance to hit enter at boot). In the UEFI interface you can also adjust boot order.

maybe i should chance something in the maintenance manager?

i have attached the diagnostics files

You missed to add back again to the xml the custom qemu args.

User script?Sorry but I'm not familiar with that scripts.

 

It means you need to add to the bottom of your xml these highlighted lines:

https://github.com/SpaceinvaderOne/Macinabox/blob/master/xml/Macinabox BigSur.xml#L134-L144

 

Everytime you change something to your vm with the unraid gui the custom qemu args will be deleted, so you need to switch to advanced mode (xml view) and add back again.
