I’ve been trying to boot the PikaOS ISO as a CD in Virtual Machine Manager but get an error on boot. Has anyone else experienced this? Did you figure out how to make it work?

    Aaaah ok. Yeah I had a hunch it might be EFI related.

    Virtual Machine Manager GUI doesn’t have the option for that. I’ll have to create it by hand.

    Thanks for the help! :)

      Virt manager does but only during creation. You have to check the option for “customize VM before creation” or whatever that option is on the last screen. Then there’s a firmware drop down where you can select OVMF
