Hello Bastian,In fact the VM is actually booting from network, and has access to a distribution mirror (copy of DVD-1 of Debian Buster 10.1), but the debian-installer can't detect VM disk to be partitionned… I don't know very well debian-installer internals, should it downloads a .deb or .udeb for disk modules to be able to detect them ? I saw in previous Debian versions some « virtio-modules » like : virtio-modules-4.9.0-11-amd64-di, containing virtio_blk module, but it doesn't exist in Buster, how the installer is supposed to get it ?
With regards, Fred.
