lordvaderxiii Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Hi Guys I cant seem to figure this out. Im very new to unraid and I have read through the help. I have an old machine using a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R motherboard and in i7920. I am unable to turn on IOMMU When I boot ubuntu it works fine until install where it needs a drive. It cant see the drive. These are my settings for the VM below. But I have tried tons of variations. Can anyone help me here? I have virtulization on and I know this machine can run vms because I have used both hyper v and virtualbox in windows and virtualbox in Ubuntu server before moving to unraid. Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Try changing the Primary vDisk Bus type. Quote Link to comment
lordvaderxiii Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 I have tried all of the options. Still no joy. Quote Link to comment
lordvaderxiii Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 I have also tried putting the VM in another location and still cant see the disk. I have also tried the qcow2 vdisk Quote Link to comment
lordvaderxiii Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 So I tried the installer with Fedora and added a bunch of different drives all with different configurations. It looks like they show up but they only have 512bytes free on them. Anyone know why and how to fix this? Quote Link to comment
lordvaderxiii Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 Im a complete idiot. This is because I put a number but not a G for gigabyte in the disk size. 5 Quote Link to comment
