Hi all, After having some issues with windows and VM running HA I have looked at trying to run Generic x64 on the pc instead. When using either balena etcher or Rufus to create the bootable drive it creates multiple drives is this correct. If I insert the usb and boot the pc from it, it gives a m…

Just some basics - Is the usb set up in ROM as a boot device? Have you considered converting the system to linux and using VM. This is working for me on an old Xeon server.

I used the setting below [image] The device was only one drive not the multiple partitions it is now.

HAOS does indeed create multiple partitions. Make sure your system is set to uefi and not bios.

That downloads the netinstaller. It is a good one, but pulls everything but the base from the internet. The standard image provides more on the cd.

Thanks guys. I now have an operational system running debian 10 with homeassistant installed and a snapshot from my previous system uploaded and working great. However I am still having mqtt issues. I have reconfigured my devices to the new ip and they are showing as connected in the HA logs but …
