Hi Reginald I have had a few machines running with windows 7 back in the day. Works well with KVM and Virtualbox.
I switched to Win10 and that works fine aswell. Needs some more programms setup to be not to snooping but that is pretty easy nowadays. In anycase Having Raidz2 as raid and a ZFS volume as disk is the most preferable case for you. It will allow you to use the raid features from ZFS while satifying Windowses FS requirements. Where have you gotten the install cd from? It should always see a medium otherwise the install wizard is not starting. If you can't see the disk of the VM try another controller type. I think windows has no support for SCSI in Virtualbox. Hope this helps Greetings Till On 11.12.2017 17:30, Reginald Beardsley via illumos-discuss wrote: > Has anyone made this work?
