Antergos vm won't install

tservice · July 20, 2016

Anyone here that can help with installing antergos vm on my unraid server? It boots to the iso, however I'm getting a hardware hos no pitchfork error. After that Antergos just stops.

Lots of people to help, but post some more info. XML would be a good start along with your hardware specs

Here you go, thanks for any help.

I downloaded Antergos a couple of days ago to try so I've just installed it on my Unraid box. Worked with no issues.

Do you mean the error said hardware has no pitchlock because that provides more results on an internet search than hardware has no pitchfork

Have you got any other VMs installed and working?

Have you checked your BIOS to ensure all the right options are configured and that both your motherboard and CPU support virtualisation?

I'm not familiar with AMD hardware I'm afraid.

Here's my working XML

I have had several vms. Ubuntu, centos, mint. I have never had this problem. Maybe this screen shot will add some insight?? lol idk where I came up with pitchfork....

Maybe try a google search on the pitchlock error and the two lines above it. I'm out of ideas as your XML looks good.

I think my BIOS was more up to date than yours but I'm on RC2, might be worth a try.

tservice · July 20, 2016

Thanks buddy. I'll search google some more. I'll check for bios updates as well.

Thanks buddy. I'll search google some more. I'll check for bios updates as well.

I meant the VM BIOS not one for your motherboard. I think they were updated in the 6.2 Beta/RC cycle.

tservice · July 20, 2016

humm I never thought about that. How do I go about doing that?
