ibasaw Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 (edited) hi, i have windows11 on my desktop computer on a ssd. There are many partitions and it's boot ok. My computer boot with UEFI and the MBR of windows11 on C drive partition. i had already try to convert this physical disk to a raw image with linux dd, after that i had convert to .qcow2 image, create a new template on unraid VM section i had spent many many hours to try/test this conversion. https://unraid.net/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_6/VM_Management#Physical_to_Virtual_Machine_Conversion => broken link But when i start the vm, windows is broken, it failed to boot, and failed to be repared, try all options recover with windows without success. How to convert my physical disk to a VM raw (qcow2) image ? ++ simply go to uefi bios into the VM, select windows boot manager and go on .... Edited March 2 by ibasaw Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I would do a full backup and restore it to the VM using acronis or some other windows image backup program. Do you already have a running windows 11 VM? If so, maybe it would be easier to do a migration to that VM. Quote Link to comment
