Make sure to double check everything before rebooting your server. The IP address order: client IP, subnet mask, and gateway IP. Note: The default connection names are Ethernet and assigned to Qemu network interface. Netsh interface ipv4 add dns name="Ethernet 2" 69.30.209.16 index=2 Netsh interface ipv4 set dns name="Ethernet 2" static 192.187.107.16 You can creating netsh script to setup the static IP automatically during startup or logon. Those are the DNS we set, once the service is online the client can change them to whatever they wish to use. This is what the support staff tell me when I can't connect even I already enable the RDP, install the network driver, and turn-off the firewall temporarily but I am enabling the DHCP. Example IP from WSI: IP: 63.141.x.xĪnd we need to use DNS server provided by WSI also. WSI use static IP so we must setup the IP manually. Note: In my case Windows already have the driver but I still add the driver to the DriverStore. You can add the network driver using: pnputil.exe -a c:yourdriver.inf Network and DriverĪfter finished, enable the RDP and turn-off the firewall temporary. Open the VNC viewer and visit your IP:1 to starting the installations. 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 tmp/qemu-system-x86_64 -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 :1įor UEFI. wget -qO- /tmp | tar xvz -C /tmpĮxcute the qemu-kvm. You need to download the UEFI bios also to support more than 2TB partition. tmp folder is enough for this portable qemu-kvm. Note: My WSI $10 box have second HDD so just I put my ISO inside it.ĭownload the ISO to /mnt folder: wget -P /mnt ĭownload and extract the portable qemu-kvm. Or if we have RAM less than 8GB, we just need to creating small partition, put the ISO file there and don't touch it during Windows installations. Need big RAM on this case (depend on the ISO size). If you need temporary folder for the ISO. Let say we want to install the Windows in /dev/sdaĭd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=1 Open the SSH console using the password provided. Previously I've asked them via their ticket system to add Grml (because of KVM module already enabled) and finally now they add it on their reload OS options, nice! Start the Windows installation on WSIįirst reload the OS and choose Grml. Such a waste if we snap a preconfigured servers with more than 4GB RAM. The Sysrcd lack of KVM module and it can only install 32 Bit OS (tested on WSI). KVM services are not provided for preconfigured servers.īut WSI provide SystemRescueCD and we can install Windows or any other OS using QEMU w/o KVM support. Operating system options for preconfigured systems are limited to available selections on order form. Preconfigured servers hardware (CPU/RAM/HDD) or bandwidth cannot be added or modified. Preconfigured Servers Cannot be Modified: Our preconfigured servers are designed for quick deployment. WSI has Core2Duo box $10/month and they don't provide KVM services for their preconfigured server. Install Windows on any WSI preconfigured server To speedup all of things, we can check if the machine and the rescue system support KVM or not by doing this: /tmp/kvm-ok tmp/qemu-system-x86_64 -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 # Download and extract the portable qemu-kvm to /tmp folder tmp and execute the qemu-kvm from there. Portable here means we do not need to install it inside the rescue system but we just need to extract it inside the temporary folder, eg. We just need to use the portable qemu-kvm. Is this possible to install Windows using the rescue system? The short answer is Yes.
