Windows 10x64 Templates Fail to Boot with Windows 1709 on High Sierra #149

Closed john-terrell closed 3 years ago

john-terrell commented 6 years ago

Both the VirtualBox and VMWare sections will fail to load the downloaded ISO (they hang at the blue Windows logo.) To make this work, I had to specify specific hypervisor options for each hypervisor:

For VMWare I had to specify: "version": "12",

For VirtualBox: "vboxmanage": [ ... [ "modifyvm", "{{.Name}}", "--paravirtprovider", "kvm" ] ]

I don't have a Parallels Hypervisor to test.

The default options for either didn't work for Windows 10 1709.

Please, i testing...

I'm testing this right now. It seems that the windows 10 installers have some other issue as well that I might as well track down too. Fortunately if it's simply a hw_version issue for the vmware-iso builder, then we can simply bump the default value to 12.

Did PR #247 affect this at all for you on vbox? (It's been merged already, so you just need to retry)

Due to the lack of response on this issue, I've tagged it as stale and thus it will be closed in a month. If you feel this is in error, let me know and I'll untag.

Closing this issue as it has gone stale due to a lack of interaction that has extended to almost a year. This is suspected to have been fixed by PR #247. If you feel this is in error, please let me know and I will re-open.
