This is a more than excellent guide. Espessially the 'details' concerning virtio, tpm, and most importantly: the spice guest install which is a treat. :) By the way, if you have installed a SATA disk without virtio, it's quite easy to change it. Just make sure that Windows 'knows' about virtio beforehand, by adding a dummy SATA disk WITH virtio. Then boot into your Windows VM with that extra Hard Disk, and make sure it works by installing the virtio stuff inside the VM, as explained in this video. Then shut down the VM, and change the XML file of the boot Hard Disk to reflect the settings of the dummy disk (except for the image file of course which should stay the same). Make sure you create a backup of the XML and image file beforehand!
Would be worth including steps to install spice and appropriate drivers for spice in the host
This is an amazingly good tutorial, I followed it and in less than half an hour I had a functioning Windows 11 virtual machine.
Du bist ein champion! Thank you very much for this incredible guide. If only all youtubers were like this!! Instantly subscribed and liked.
awesome, easy walkthrough! 1 more video guide to keep me on linux :)
Excellent mate cheers, great channel!
Great walkthrough. Sorry for the newbie question, but I'm new to KVM. For some reason, I got no performance benefit by using virtio with my graphics card. Maybe it would only be noticeable when using two cards?
Thank you for your time and effort to guide us.:hand-pink-waving:
Worked great but 1 issue, display resolution is greyed out, this means dynamic resolution won't work as well. Re-watching your video on setup I noticed in the virt setting under the video tab you have QXL selected for the "model" where by default it is Bochs. Is this because you have passthrough enabled for your GPU prior?
This is what I will do this year as the time of death has come for Windows 10 and I'm will not use windows 11 as my main OS, but I have one question: Is there any way nstalling and using windows 11 without login with a MS account? I do have one, but I would prefer if can go with something like just a local account or something like that.
Does windows 11 still work with the new dotfiles and would the gpu passthrough still work the same way. Or are you considering a new video
Hey there I wanted to ask for some help. I followed this and your previous tutorial on Installing Virtual Machine on ArchLinux and then installing Windows11. My issue is that my Windos11 VM has no internet connection, even on ethernet. I've been looking up solutions but cant find any. Could you help? Thank you and Cheers for the great videos.
Thank you for making this tutorial!!!
I'll be honest I haven't even watched the video yet just commenting on the title and it made me laugh. I recently turned my windows 10 machine into full linux mint after some playing with duel boot successfully and bought a new pc for windows 11 since my amd could not upgrade. Great solution but within a couple weeks using steam i had my first revelation of remote desktop and some learning about virtual machines. Now I have chrome remote desktop on both computers and get an absolute kick out of using the computer that's now mint, which couldn't upgrade to windows 11 and now remotely using a fully functioning windows 11 from the other machine on remote. I think that's a trip as I'm not an expert just a tinkerer. It wouldn't take windows 11 , although I was using windows 11 haha. lol
Everything still works! Thank you very much!
So cool 👍🏻 Thanks 😊
Not recognizing internet connection asking to install driver, solutions? thanks
will this work on a mint machine? I tried the first command (sudo pacman -S swtpm) and got an error. command not found.
