Below is the XML that was created from the example above with the changes that I made shown in RED. Now that we created the VM, we need to make some changes to the XML prior to booting it the first time. I add my GPU at the end of the process when I am ready to boot OE the first time. I find this easier since it negates the need to have a KB passed through. You will notice to start that I have not passed through a GPU.the installation will occur using VNC. You can also select any USB devices that you would like to passthrough at this point. Start VM after creation: Make sure this is unchecked prior to creating the VM as we need to do some XML tweaking first Point this to the OpenELEC 6.0.0 (x86_64) Disk image file (wherever you extracted/stored it) 2nd vDisk Location: You will need to be in Advanced view to see this and click on the '+' sign to add a seconds disk. Primary vDisk Location: Where the vdisk will be stored Initial Memory: I give it 1GB (Max should auto adjust to be the same CPUs: I pin one core to each OE instance The only things changed are highlighted in yellow:

While we wait for unRAID 6.2 to be released (which will include an OE v6 final template), I figured I would share with everyone how to actually install OE in a VM using the Official OE image file.īelow are screenshots taken while creating the VM. You can proceed with the guide below from that point. You should now be taken to the normal OE Installer screen. Delete everything to the right of 'Installer': "quite tty vga=current" and hit Enter (see pic). Once you do that, make sure "Run Installer" is highlighted and then hit the 'Tab' key to edit the command line options. Follow the guide below, however, when you first boot the OE Installer, you need to be quick and stop the countdown ( I think it is only 5 seconds or something) by pressing an a key (I use an up or down arrow key) while on the Boot menu screen.

UPDATE 27DEC15: After all of this time, I finally found the key to installing OE v5.0.8 in a VM.
