Well done. The official tutorial LXC provides for this covers the same steps but your additional details, as well as tips on tools from scoop, were really helpful. Something I discovered: You cannot use the iso downloaded by the media creation tool from microsoft. That version (10 or 11) contains an "install.esd" file instead of the needed "install.wim." This caused the distrobuilder / lxd-imagebuilder to fail. I already had a windows 10 iso I got from the media creation tool from an install on a different computer so I just used that at first. Eventually figured out that ISOs downloaded from directly did not have this issue. Slim chance this will help anyone but just in case, may my foibles be your lesson.
@@chrysippus7193 thanks for letting me know that you found this video helpful! There's a big difference between concepts and actually doing things in practice. That's why pretty much all of my videos are practical, hands-on guides, so you can actually see things working in practice.
many thanks for a very detailed video. i followed all through but when i start --console, I got a spice error saying could not connect to on a different port, not sure what I am missing
Hi, please i need some help here... I'm getting some errors after: lxc init --vm win11-03 --config=limits.cpu=3 --config=limits.memory=6GiB --empty The Errors Creating win11-03 Error: Failed creating instance record: Instance type "virtual-machine" is not supported on this server: KVM support is missing (no /dev/kvm) Please Trevor, Help..
Please i'm getting this error. Creating win11-03 Error: Failed creating instance record: Instance type "virtual-machine" is not supported on this server: KVM support is missing (no /dev/kvm)
i typed in ```lxc init --vm win11 --config=limits.cpu=3 --config=limits.memory=6GiB --empty``` and got Error: Failed creating instance record: Failed initialising instance: Failed getting root disk: No root device could be found
Thank you! I wish it were possible to share GPUs. I think this is limited to enterprise drivers unfortunately. I've done some research on it and never found a solution.
You are just amazing. Thank you so much for doing this video. It help me a lot in how to start using lxd for virtualization.

Thanks. I have a good gpu in my Linux machine. Could I use the full-power GPU in the windows VM?
Is there a way to get graphics accelation from the host gpu ?
My understanding is that you'd need a second GPU on the host. But yes in theory you should be able to.
Can we install windows 11 and remove ubuntu. If it is possible then how
i typed in ```lxc init --vm win11 --config=limits.cpu=3 --config=limits.memory=6GiB --empty``` and got Error: Failed creating instance record: Failed initialising instance: Failed getting root disk: No root device could be found
Have you already initialized LXD?
you have been so much hlp.. thank you.. @@TrevorSullivan
Your video is useful and thank you!
Do you know how to share GPU for multiple VMs?
Thank you!
