We've been struggling to install Windows Server 2022 on oVirt. We recently upgraded to the latest oVirt 4.5 on EL9 hosts, but it didn't help. In the past, we could boot a VM from the install CD, add the mass storage drivers from the virt-io CD, and proceed from there. However, oVirt 4.3 didn't have a Server 2022 selection. After upgrading to oVirt 4.5, we couldn't get it to boot from the CD. It just gave me Windows boot errors if I do q35 EFI. If I switch back to i440fx I get the same behavior as in oVirt 4.3 - it'll boot the DVD but doesn't find a disk with the virtio-scsi drivers. We'd greatly appreciate if anyone has successfully installed Server 2022 in oVirt. Many thanks, Devin
