I had the same issue, to fix this i used VDI instead of VMDK and exported the virtual machine to OVA format. I have QNAP TS-253A. It’s not a difficult process but if anyone want the converted image i could upload it somewhere.
Thanks for the time you spent on the tutorial. Followed strictly, but no go. Also tryed the @nick3 solution and still no go. Maybe there’s a fix, but the process is too much unreliable to put into production. Anyway, thanks again for your contributions!
For the records: Hardware = TBS-453A
Also for the records: Synology Virtual Machine Manager runs HassIO without any workaround and without any problems here. I’m currently trying both systems to see what fits better in my environment.
Very strange that it works on one qnap and not the other, My Hassio is running without any problems just like intended and is currently in a production environment in my home, I have updated the core and OS many times without any issues.
What is your problem exactly? Does the VM say booting from HDD and nothing happens or something else? Another thing i can do is upload a native QVM format VM.
After - currently it is a guess - running into some trouble with my VM setup on Ubuntu I found your tutorial. Thanks a lot for not only testing but also sharing.
I downloaded Virtual Box 6.1 and used the vmkd hass 3.11 to follow all your steps.
I am quite positive that I did not miss anything and I get stuck on the boot up.
Second try was using your ova which is starting up for me (TS-453B 4.4.1).
Updating to Version 3.11 is not really working for me though.
Are you on 3.11 ? Could you maybe export and share the qvm?
Based on @nick3’s image I created a qvm with the basic things prepared for Zigbee2mqtt setup, including needed automation mqtt etc. Feel free to try and share feedback.
