hyper-v 12.2 (x86 & x64) - No disks found

Hey!

I'm currently trying to set-up some virtual machines on my Hyper-V server, but somehow none of my created FreeBSD machines are recognizing the virtual disk. I simply can’t install the OS sadly. I already tried the shell installation to maybe partition it myself but it’s literally not showing any storage disk.

Are there any special settings I might have to set for this? Never seen this problem before nor did I find anything similar through Google.

Best regards!
 
How is the VM itself configured? What disks and controller types did you give it? And what version of FreeBSD did you use?
 
I'm currently trying to install the FreeBSD 12.2 i386 Release build. As for the controllers I tried both, IDE and SCSI - No difference sadly. Also tried both virtual disk extensions, VHD and VHDX with both, fixed and dynamic size. The installation process always gave me the same answer "No disks found"
 
Use VirtIO if you can, and use the amd64 version. The GENERIC kernel has support for these:
Code:
# VirtIO support
device		virtio			# Generic VirtIO bus (required)
device		virtio_pci		# VirtIO PCI device
device		vtnet			# VirtIO Ethernet device
device		virtio_blk		# VirtIO Block device
device		virtio_scsi		# VirtIO SCSI device
device		virtio_balloon		# VirtIO Memory Balloon device

# HyperV drivers and enhancement support
device		hyperv			# HyperV drivers
