Calling all proxmox experts

[0methe]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to install Windows 10 x32 on a VM in proxmox. I need the 32 bit version to run some 16 bit programs. I've used the media creation tool to create a 32 bit .iso file, configured a VM to with KVM32 for the CPU, 4GB ram etc. Whenever I try to start the VM it just sits there with a blinking _, reboots and repeats..

 

Is there anything I need to do differently to get Windows 10 x32 running on proxmox?

 

Thanks!

I just did a win 10 22h2 x32 install on Proxmox, but with cpu set to host. You can run a 32 bit os on a 64bit cpu, and might as well have those extra cpu features enabled.

 

Id try getting the combo iso with x64 + x32 and see if that does it if the above doesn't work. I used the combo iso for my install.

Hi can you point me to where I can grab the combo iso?

 

Thanks!

Well I don't see the link any more. I think I used to be able to get it from the media creation tool.

Ok thanks, I'll hunt around

 

Thanks for your help, I'll post back here if it doesn't work!

I found a link to the Windows 10 64/32 iso and set the cpu to host and it seems to be working fine. The MCT must have created a dodgy iso.

 

Thanks!
