Good luck with it @Joy

Tuesday morning and it's freeezing. Why doesn't heating get under the desk, top half warming up, bottom half feels like I'm sitting in an ice pond.

I've discovered that when no one else is home, I keep the house at 80 degrees. I would never have guessed, lol.

We keep ours parallel to the street.

Maybe Hyper-V is more well known by more sys admins world wide and that's why it's so widely used?

Everyone knows Windows Server, it's a natural and free progression from there.

Sitting in a room waiting for the heater to start. brrrrrrr...

Fuming over Macrium's ridiculous process in which you purchase & renew licensing. It's taken me so long to try and get things sorted out that any margin I was going to make is now below $0.00.
That's not how to do business & make money!

but they are making money...

Haha. Yes they are, but at the moment, they're not getting it form me.

Having coffee and still raining outside

Snap! It's doing & I'm doing exactly the same things.
Damn it's cold today.

How cold?

According to https://www.accuweather.com/en/ph/makati-city/264878/daily-weather-forecast/264878?day=1
25° is pretty cold for me.
Should I be bringing a blanket when I'm travelling over there?

G'day @Joy where are you coming from?
You're going to the Gold Coast aren't you? If so, then you've nothing to worry about. I didn't look at the link but if it's 25 degrees C then that's about high 70s - low 80s F.

I live on the cold coast, down in south west Australia. I reckon it's about 50-60 degrees F.

Thank you all for your help with this problem.

I had this problem at a site I work at once a week. I went back there yesterday and things worked without me having to do anything so I don't know what was going on.

Anyway, all fixed & once again thanks.

@nadnerb said in Fedora in Hyper-V on Windows 10 Possible?:

As unhelpful as it it... "mine works fine"

If you attempt a boot without the ISO, do you get the "insert boot media..." message?
Have you run a checksum comparison on the ISO file?

No & no to that mate.

I thought all was OK, but alas, no. It installs OK, but when it reboots post install it just hangs and never gets to the GUI.
I've downloaded another ISO, so I'll give that a go.
It is helpful to know that it does work, I must just have to iron out some bugs on my system.

Well I blew away the Gen1 VM (made about 3 of them while trying to get it to go), created Gen2 VM, disabled secure boot (didn't see your post Obsolesce) and wammo! it all went through fine.
All installed and working OK ... so far.
Thanks for the help.

@nadnerb said in Fedora in Hyper-V on Windows 10 Possible?:

Did you disable secure boot in the VMs settings?

Don't think a Gen1 VM has secure boot as an option? Please let me know if it does.

Running in 'Admin' mode makes no difference.
