Mageia forum

Trying to install Mageia 4.1 as a VM on Hyper-v 2012. Problem is Mageia does not see the hyper-v network card, 'Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller'. Any suggestions?

edit doktor5000: merged into other Hyper-V thread.

Are the Integration services for Hyper-V avaiable in a repo somewhere for running a Mageia VM within MS Hyper-V?

What integration services? The only thing that's available are the kernel modules, which come with the kernel.

Code: Select all

You may want to look at some older thread about hyper-v: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6638

I see, I was hoping there was more full Integration Services available somewhere that might would make Mageia run better as a hyper-v VM. Hyper-v detects current integration services in Mageia VM as "Degraded (Integration services upgrade required)".

Please mark the thread accordingly by editing the topic of the first post and prefix it by [DONE], thanks

FWIW I have multiple Mageia 4 VMs running on Hyper V.
The latest update to the 3.14.18 kernel broke all of them, could not detect the NIC.
I set the default boot to the last kernel before the update 3.12.25 and everything works fine.

I hope that a newer kernel will fix the problem.

Did you open a bugreport about that? Such issues will not fix themselves magically if they're not reported ...
