Arista vEOS Switch in EVE-NG - Hyper-V - Boot Failes

Post by jan » Sat Dec 06, 2025 4:08 pm

- Setup performed according to https://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/docume ... ista-veos/
(with the slight difference that I placed cdrom.iso in the directory qemu/veos-4.34.0F instead of qemu)
- I tried different images, for example veos-4.34.0F, always the same error

- Unfortunately, the boot process fails in all cases – see below

Code: Select all
