frenzied-hip6707 Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 when trying to follow the guide, I don't se the option to add the VHD image/ the .pfr file to a VM, any ideas? Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 You can definitely do this as I am running the 6.12.4 release under VirtualBox on Windows. I have a .vmdk set up to start the boot of Unraid as I do not know how set up VirtualBox to boot directly off the flash drive, which then picks up the Unraid flash drive for the later stages of the boot. I am not sure if there is a way to bypass the booting off the .vmdk - something I have been meaning to look into. Quote Link to comment
