Or you can always boot Linux using the -cdrom command and use efibootmgr to force the OVMF to boot the Windows loader entry for this virtual machine by default. Usage of the efibootmgr command is out of scope of this article and can be found in many online resources elsewhere.
It says to listen on port localhost-only , adds SPICE channel between host and guest to allow remote copy-paste and 4 remotelly-attachable USB devices. If the original local VM graphical output is not needed, add -display none parameter. Have fun with virtualized Windows and remember — Windows is good for games only and for stuff like government PDFs which use proprietary Adobe XFA forms and are therefore supported in official Adobe Reader which has the best support in this platform only.
By default it is very limited maximum number or RAM, maximum number of CPU cores, maximum number of listening socket connections, etc until you pay huge amounts of money to Microsoft.

Partitions are on different parts of the physical drive. And this is exactly what I am doing here. That Windows bootloader would then load that partition and continue normal windows booting. So you will use EFI partition initially, run Windows bootloader on it you can use EFI console mounted as cdrom at the beginning or use boot options of the TianoCore EFI firmware — hit ESC during boot , which then finds and loads the the big windows partition, mounts it and boots from it.
Thank you very much for these instructions. I found this code on a blog here. If you want "physical" access, we're developing this API that will eventually allows you to communicate with storage devices. It's open source and you can see the current code for some information. Open each of those drives with CreateFile e.
Next take that handle and run it through DeviceIoControl to get the Disk. See my related answer for more details. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group. Create a free Team What is Teams?
