I have same issue with Windows 8 32-bit.

HOWEVER! 64-bit does install fine and work well. No qxl driver will load and no vsd process will run (wrong windows version error - working on git source compile now).

Hi Itamar,

I tried installing windows8 enterprise 32 bit as ovirt guest but bootloader failed to load with error 0x00005d .

host machine support vt & vt-d.

Same thing is happening while installing windows 8 in centos 6.2 host.

windows8 is not listed in guest support option in ovirt 3.1/rhel 6.3.

some google results showed that its because windows 8 is not supporting IDE.

There is no option for sata controller in any of the above virtualization solutions.

If its happening due to some other thing could you please let me know the how to make it work.

Thanks,

Jithin

Hi All,

Windows 8 guest is supported in ovirt?
Any plan since it has some issues with qemu sata support.

can you please elaborate on the issue?
