      An issue that may come up is I don't believe he has admin access to install roles.

      He might, but not from what I saw.

      Yet he can be allowed to add an completely uncontrolled OS on his desktop?

      Not in any shop I control.

      /sigh - this is a home machine - if he doesn't have admin, it's because he forgot the password.

        Apparently i dont have enough space for a fedora dual boot.. @JaredBusch do you have a walkthrough on how to use hyper-v?

        You just "install the Hyper-V role" under roles.

        He couldn't open device manager, he doesn't have access to install roles.

        I can, i just didnt run it on my admin account. I have 2 accounts. one as admin one as user

                    If it is not for personal learning, then take the entire thing back to your boss and tell them you need Hyper-V added to your

                    Something everyone needs to remember - William has installed Windows 10, as far as I know, exactly once. When I helped him install this laptop. He's an IT neophyte and needs tons of help, even on the most basic things becuase he's fumbling completely brand new.

                    What he does need are specific tasks to try to accomplish - unfortunately, he choose a task - installing Unifi in a VM on Windows - that's not exactly novice level.

                        Click on Programs and Features on the right (or if window size is too small, scroll down to see it)

                        Click Turn Windows Features on or off (this is where you will need admin password).

                        Check Hyper-V and click OK.

                              I never even got the the point of trying to install Hyper-V for him. It was Vbox doesn't work, you can try these alternatives, Hyper-V, KVM, XenServer etc in a dualboot scenario.

                              A lot of people are using KVM on the forums, you can ask there if that is what you want to do.

                              So all of you can pound sand!

                                      What is wrong with virtual box? sounds like you never setup networking in your other thread. did no one confirm that?

                                        You might think, being Jared's high horse and all, that I'd be virtual. But I'm not, I'm a literal horse. Not like a Type-1 Horse-V that just appears like a horse.

                                          Type-1 Horse-V is bare back, of course.

                                            @wrcombs said in Wanting to Dual boot to test KVM.. Where do i begin?:

                                            @DustinB3403 gave me options, i chose the try to dual boot. Its not his fault @JaredBusch, this one would be on me.

                                            What is wrong with virtual box? sounds like you never setup networking in your other thread. did no one confirm that?

                                            Virtual box runs fine, then once I get done with the install it freezes. How would i check networking setup. Refer to @Dashrender 's reply. I am literally new to IT ( most ive done is what @scottalanmiller refers to as 'bench' work)
