|

This section explains how to run |CLOSIA| inside a
|
||||
`Windows Server Virtualization`_\* or **Hyper-V** environment.

Install Hyper-V
|

================
|

|
||||
Please refer to the `Microsoft documentation`_ to install and configure
|
||||
*Hyper-V* on your machine.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Create a virtual machine
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
#. Download the `latest`_ live version (clear-XXXX-live.img.xz) of Clear Linux OS
|
||||
for Intel Architecture.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Decompress the downloaded image. Uncompressed image size is ~ **5GB**.
|
||||
|
||||
#. To convert a raw image to :abbr:`VHD (Virtual Hard Disk)`
|
||||
format, you can use VirtualBox_ or QEMU_.
|
||||
|
||||
* With *VirtualBox*, you can use one of the following commands::
|
||||
|
||||
> VBoxManage convertfromraw clear-XXXX-live.img clear-XXXX-live.vhd --format VHD
|
||||
|
||||
or::
|
||||
|
||||
> vbox-img convert --srcfilename clear-XXXX-live.img --dstfilename clear-XXXX-live.vhd --srcformat raw --dstformat vhd
|
||||
|
||||
* With *QEMU*, you can use the following command::
|
||||
|
||||
> qemu-img convert -f raw -O vpc clear-XXXX-live.img clear-XXXX-live.vhd
|
||||
|
||||
You can test your new *VHD image* using the **PowerShell** command line::
|
||||
|
||||
PS C:\> Test-VHD -Path c:\path\to\clear-XXXX-live.vhd
|
||||
|
||||
Clear Linux OS for Intel Architecture uses *EFI* to boot. Since this feature
|
||||
is availible only in `Generation 2`_ or later virtual machines, you'll need
|
||||
to convert from **VHD** to **VHDX**. To do this, you can use the following
|
||||
*PowerShell* command::
|
||||
|
||||
PS C:\> Convert-VHD -Path c:\path\to\clear-XXXX-live.vhd -DestinationPath c:\path\to\clear-XXXX-live.vhdx
|
||||
|
||||
You can save the new *VHDX* virtual hard disk in :file:`C:\\Users\\Public\\Documents\\Hyper-V\\Virtual Hard Disks`.
|
||||
#. Download and uncompress the latest hyperv disk image :file:`clear-XXXX-
|
||||
hyperv.img.xz`) of |CLOSIA| from our `downloads`_ section.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Create a virtual machine using the **Hyper-V Manager**:
|
||||
|
||||
* Choose **Generation 2** when you need to *specify VM generation*.
|
||||
* Choose **Use an existing virtual hard disk** and browse to find the :file:`clear-XXXX-live.vhdx` file.
|
||||
* When finised, open VM settings, select Firmware Section and in Secure Boot
|
||||
config, **uncheck** Enable Secure Boot.
|
||||
#. Choose **Generation 2** when prompted to *specify VM generation*.
|
||||
#. Choose **Use an existing virtual hard disk** and browse to find the
|
||||
:file:`clear-XXXX-hyperv.vhdx` file.
|
||||
#. When finished, open VM settings, select Firmware Section and in Secure
|
||||
Boot config, **uncheck** Enable Secure Boot.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Currently Clear Linux does not boot with secure boot enabled.
|
||||
.. note:: Currently, Clear Linux does not boot with :option:`secure boot`
|
||||
enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Finally, connect to your new VM and start it. You should see a prompt asking for
|
||||
a user; use::
|
||||
#. Connect to your new VM and start it. You should see a prompt:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
> User: root
|
||||
|
||||
and set a root user password.
|
||||
#. Set a root user password.
|
||||
|
||||
Your virtual machine running |CLOSIA| is ready!
