Install Windows Hyper-V 2019 on R530?
Hello
We have PowerEdge R530 which I have been trying to install Windows Hyper-V Server 2019. I have updated the Bios to 2.16, iDRAC to 2.83.83.83. I have tried both Boot manager and Lifecycle Controller. Both method is able to boot to USB Drive and shows Windows Logo, then a dark blue background shows and nothing else. What am I missing? As I found r530 supports 2019

Hello, I'm not sure if it can be installed as Windows Hyper-V Server 2019 type 1(bare metal). As you can see here, it is not among the supported ones. https://dell.to/3KBODMJ In this way, we can have users who can run some operating systems that are not on the supported list, this does not mean that they will not work at all. However, there is no guide like W2K19, for example. https://dell.to/41sKDnK Although I saw that there were readystack structures with Hyper-V, I could not find a direct example of installing from scratch them on a normal server. They can get help from the community who can overcome the setbacks encountered. Maybe it can be an alternative for you to activate Hyper-V feature on W2K19 installed OS. https://dell.to/41FHQrw

Hi @Biligsaikhan,
Just to confirm, you're booting from the USB to do OS installation right?
May I know how do you prepare the USB for installation?
Do you have iDRAC Enterprise?
