Guest agent not installed - how to proceed with network interface? VM Linux at Unraid

Hi

so I need to create new VW with LUBUNTU installed but I have big problem.

 

Once I create VM all looks fine (br0 direct bridge) but when I save my  config - network interface in config disappears and I see only this:

And when trying to install Lubuntu there is no network interface. 

How can I enable network interface there? How I can install guest drivers if not having internet connection? Cannot use apt-install.

 

It never happened to me earlier on my other Unraid server but I installed my last VM few years ago and perhaps I miss something here?

Having the same issue on 6.11.5, Dockers are all getting access to br0 no problem, but VMs can't get on the network and it just says guest agent not installed. This is a fresh install of unraid I am using to test out the software before deciding totally on going forward with it.

You have the virtio iso mounted, but did you install the package in the VM from it?

Looks good on Win 10 but not working on Win 11
 

 

Hi,

 

I am having the same problem, it works on Windows 10, but not on Windows 11.

 

Did you ever find a solution to get it working on Windows 11 as well?

 

Thank you!

Have you loaded the qemu guest agent from the virtio CD?
