      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.

        KVM has nothing to do with running a UniFi controller. That just goes in an Ubuntu VM.

        Yeah, the issue was specifically something with vbox and the VMs was working with, he's new and learning.

        The stated goal is learning Unifi. Do that without mixing in unrelated solutions.

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

          Not in any shop I control.

              The point is that whoever is in charge of his PC should never allow this.

                But does have access to reinstall the OS? That would be weird.

                  He told me he did reinstall Windows 10. So not weird as he has some access.

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

                    I believe i have full admin rights of this device, @Dashrender would be able to tell me differently seeing how i bought this computer from him and installed Windows 10.

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

                        Derailed maybe, but only because it was all going the wrong way in the first place.

                        If the user cannot add a local role to his desktop, then trying to go around it by adding an operating system that the IT department is not going to have any control over (yes, an assumption) sounds like a good idea to who?

                        Since this is for obviously personal learning, spend $2.50 and spin up an Ubuntu VM on Vultr, or do it on your home machine.

                        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 desktop.

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

                                          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.

                                          didnt forget passsword.. just didnt right click and run as admin

                                          LOL, that'll do it.

                                            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.
