emiel1900 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I'm experiencing trouble with setting up VM's on my unraid installation. I'm running a trial version on a HP Proliant microserver. Specifications. So the problem is when I start up a VM, booting the debian netinstall image, the VM just freezes when I press enter on install. It shows this. This is with SeaBIOS. But when I use OVMF I get this. The weird thing is that these problems do not occur with booting a windows 7 installation image. Does anyone have any clue what could be the problem here?

emiel1900 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Okay I fixed it. The solution is to put the VM to emulated instead of host passthrough. Quote Link to comment
rix Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 This has serious performance implications, though. 2 minutes ago, emiel1900 said: Okay I fixed it. The solution is to put the VM to emulated instead of host passthrough. Quote Link to comment

Do you (or anyone) know a way around this? I've got the same issue. I was able to get it installed with virtual CPU, but after the installation, switching it back to host breaks it again - neither VNC nor ssh will work with host, though they both work with virtual CPU. I was thinking that it could be the fact that I am using an older host architecture (Phenom II 1055t), however on Proxmox with a similar architecture, I am able to install with NoVNC and host CPU with no issue. *Edit: I forgot to mention, I tried both Debian and Ubuntu latest versions where I've seen this issue. I tried all options for VNC display drivers and BIOS as well. Edited January 26, 2019 by a1b2c3 Quote Link to comment
rix Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 no, sorry. it sounds likely your cpu simply does not support virtualization. Quote Link to comment
