Re: [ovirt-users] Server 2012 R2 no drive found

Hi Neil, I'll test Windows Server 2012 R2 again with IDE and VirtIO disks (and e1000 and VirtIO network cards) with VirtIO-drivers from RHEL channel and drivers bundles with spice guest agent and will let you know the results. Please keep in mind that it will take some time... Btw, I will use Windows 2012 R2 english, 180-days trial...
