windows workstation install fails with "No bootable device"

Before posting something, READ the changelog, WATCH the videos, howto and provide following:
Your install is: Bare metal, ESXi, what CPU model, RAM, HD, what EVE version you have, output of the uname -a and any other info that might help us faster.

windows workstation install fails with "No bootable device"

Post by emoreno1201 » Wed Apr 06, 2022 10:54 pm

Hi everyone,

I am attempting to install Windows workstation and Server. After following the documentation provided here and a couple of videos my install fails when I add the node and start it. I can see the POST going thru the boot disk, dvd/cd, floppy and eventually fails unable to find a boot device. I cut and paste the step to create a virtual disk so that there could be no typos. Appreciate everyone's help!!!

I run EVE-NG 2.0.3-112 / QEMU version 2.4.0 and have exactly the same problem though i used the example and video refered to.
The installation goes ok, but after booting the last time it goes to
"Booting from Hard Disk..
An operating system wasn't found. Try disconnectiong any drives that don't contain an operating system.
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart "
