Hi Ladi, do you know if the upstream virtio drivers are correctly signed? In particular: http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.6/rpm/el6/noarch/ovirt-guest-tools...

If yes, any idea what can be the issue Cam faces?

The other thing is that the crash happens after the install, upon first reboot. The contents of the Windows guest tools ISO are copied to the Windows Deployment server from where they are installed. When I try an alternative install using a Win 7 ISO, rather than PXE boot, it fails at a different point. This is using the oVirt Windows guest tools ISO that is in the 3.6.3 repos. When it comes to installing to disk, I change the CD to the guest tools ISO and browse to the win7 drivers (ovirt-tools-setup/drivers/virtio/viostor/w7/amd64/, which has the viostor drivers), but then the installer complains it cannot install on the disk, even though it can successfully create partitons on it (see attached screenshot).

It is the same issue though, I have checked the timestamp in your BSOD screenshot. The driver running on the system at the time of crash was a build targeted at Win8 or newer.

>> The other thing >> is that the crash happens after the install, upon first reboot. >> The >> contents of the Windows guest tools ISO >> are copied to the Windows Deployment server from where they are installed. Can you feed only the Win7 subset of the ISO to WDS? Sorry, I am not familiar with WDS enough to be more helpful. The problem with all the virtio-win releases so far is that the drivers don't declare the minimum Windows version they support. So Windows (or in this case WDS?) is free to choose any of them, usually going after the highest version which tends to be the Win8 variety. This will also be fixed soon.

What does it say when you click "Show details"?

The build appears to be going well so far, no BSODs. Thanks very much for the help Ladi!

Any ideas on when the newly signed drivers will be available?
