December 3, 201510 yr Hi Everyone, So i thought it was about time to get my NVMe drive set up for a virtual machine so i went through the process of preparing it (As it's not supported by unraid yet). Here is what i did Change the drive to be using an MBR boot Format the drive to XFS I then ran the following commands to get the drive mounted and a vm image copied onto it cd /mnt mkdir nvme0 mount -t xfs /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt/nvme0 cd /mnt/nvme0 mkdir OSImages cd /mnt/nvme0/OSImages mkdir Jamie cp /mnt/user/vdisks/Jamie/vdisk1.img /mnt/nvme0/OSImages/Jamie/vdisk1.img This gets my VM image moved over and i am able to set up a VM and tell it to use the image. I'm aware i can shorten the commands but for now they work One issue i am having is that whilst the vm will start, during windows loading it will lock up my entire system and i have to reboot unraid using a power reset. I'm wondering if this is an issue that is from the NVMe drive or if its an issue with how i'm mounting the drive to the system? Any help on this would be amazing as i am hoping anything i can find might help get the drives added sooner Regards, Jamie
