[ovirt-users] Re: Can't install windows guest
Dear Vincent,
Thank you for the quick support. Yes, i have connected the driver cd,
installed the drivers, but the disk is still not visible for windows.
Really strange is, that it doesn't matter, if I use scsi, or IDE (which
should work natively), nothing is visible in windows... :(
So i have no clue what is the problem. I have many virtual windows
guests in my other virtual platform (kvm) and there is everything
working fine.
