I have just installed installed Quickemu v-6.1.4.
quickget windows 11 ran as it should without any errors or warnings.
However:
(base) comp@Abanormal:~/VM$ quickemu --vm windows-10.conf
~/VM ~/VM
Quickemu 4.9.4 using /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 v7.2.9
- Host: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) running Linux 6.1
(Abanormal)
- CPU: AMD FX(tm)-8320 Eight-Core Processor
- CPU VM: 1 Socket(s), 2 Core(s), 2 Thread(s), 4G RAM
ERROR! You have insufficient RAM to run windows in a VM
(base) comp@Abanormal:~/VM$
I am somewhat confused as:
(base) comp@Abanormal:~$ free -ght
total used free shared
buff/cache available
Mem: 7.7Gi 2.3Gi 225Mi 34Mi
5.4Gi 5.3Gi
Swap: 975Mi 50Mi 925Mi
Total: 8.6Gi 2.4Gi 1.1Gi
All your RAM is being used as buffer/cache. Run the following command to free up ram:
sudo sync && sh -c "/usr/bin/echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches"
The strange thing is that I have installed Windows 10 using QEMU/KVM
virt-manager without any RAM problems at all.
Some guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
