Problem booting your Kimsufi with Windows? Read this!

I had problems booting the templates in Kimsufi, and 3 days later, found out why: The new Kimsufi line is UEFI. Made a new template with EFI, dd it, and it is working!

    What line is that? Do you have any server models?

    Why do people use windows in the first place?

  • myhkenmyhken Member

    I like to mix Windows and Linux. Normally using Windows as Server OS and then Linux on VMs. (and VPS).

    I had some issues with the KS-3C that I got some help with, and I have created my own template based on that. My "old" template work on KS-2A and KS-1

    Exchange alone is enough of a reason.

    Well install it using the rescue system is fine even with UEFI:

    wget -qO- /tmp http://notfor.pro/content/files/vkvm.tar.gz | tar xvz -C /tmp
    wget -qO- /tmp http://notfor.pro/content/files/uefi.tar.gz | tar xvz -C /tmp
    

    Open the QEMU on UEFI mode:

    /tmp/qemu-system-x86_64 -bios /tmp/uefi.bin -net nic -net user,hostfwd=tcp::3389-:3389 -m 2048M -localtime -enable-kvm -cpu host,+nx -M pc -smp 2 -vga std -usbdevice tablet -k en-us -cdrom /mnt/win8-64.iso -hda /dev/sda -boot once=d -vnc :1

    Windows 7 vs. Windows 8 or 10 has a lot of differences when handling new hardware changes etc. so you can try to use Windows 8 or 10 instead.

    N2800 doesnt have kvm, and trying it with no-kvm is way bad :c
