Installation[edit | edit source]
QEMU installation guide:
The following requirements used in order to install this build onto a virtual machine are listed below:
- A 64-bit version of QEMU
- A version of the TianoCore EDK II firmware for ARM64 emulation, to be placed in the QEMU installation directory under
fw/QEMU_EFI.fd - The Red Hat VirtIO driver package
- Virtual hard disk image for OS install
Instructions[edit | edit source]
Create the needed virtual disk images through the diskpart utility by running the below script; they will be created under a directory in the C: drive named 16222ARM64. The partitions it will contain will be respectively mounted under drive letters P and Z.
create vdisk file="C:\16222ARM64\HDD.vhd" maximum=65536 type=expandable select vdisk file="C:\16222ARM64\HDD.vhd" attach vdisk convert gpt create partition efi size=100 format quick fs=fat32 assign letter=Z create partition primary format quick fs=ntfs assign letter=P exit
Deploy the WIM image, mount the VirtIO driver disc image, install the Windows 10-specific VirtIO storage driver by invoking the following DISM commands and add the boot files to the EFI partition:
rem Apply the image and install the VirtIO storage driver
DISM /Apply-Image /ImageFile:"X:\path\to\install.wim" /ApplyDir:P:\ /Index:1
DISM /Image:P:\ /Add-Driver /Driver:"Y:\viostor\w10\ARM64\viostor.inf"
rem Make system bootable
bcdboot "P:\Windows" /s Z: /f UEFI
Eject the currently attached virtual disk from the machine, then paste and run the contents of the below script onto a batch file within the QEMU installation directory:
set MAIN="C:\16222ARM64\HDD.vhd"
