Press Windows key and X key Power menu will appear Select Powershell (Admin) Open it NOTE: Do one scan at a time. Next, create the recovery partition and while you are at it, go ahead and format it as well. They will look for any system corruption and will fix it. Initialize-Disk -Number $disknumber -PartitionStyle GPT ![]() The first step in the process is to initialize the disk with a GPT partition, which is what makes it a Gen 2 disk. $disknumber = (Get-DiskImage -ImagePath $path).Number You will be referring to this disk several times which you will be able to do with its number. Maxell Quick Disks were among the first of it’s kind. The Chinese pirater of this disk used the label to stick a rectangular silver rod only slightly thicker than a large paper clip at the top of the disk to mimic Nintendo’s design. The New-VHD cmdlet doesn’t know how to create a Gen 2 disk, so we’ll have to handle that ourselves. In the image below is a Maxell disk used to pirate Nintendo FDS games. $disk = New-VHD -Path $path -Dynamic -SizeBytes 25GB Let’s begin by defining a variable that holds the path to the new disk file, which has to be a VHDX fileĬreating the VHDX file is pretty easy. As you will see, you will need to create and format some partitions and the Storage cmdlets are very convenient. In addition to PowerShell 4.0 you will also need the Storage module. To follow along, you will need to be running the most current version of Hyper-V, either on a server or a Windows 8.1 client. Using Quick Create, users can set up an Ubuntu Generation 2 virtual machine in just a minute or two. Will Cooke from Canonical announced new Hyper-V Quick Create Gallery virtual hard disk with pe-installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. So now it seems, we need to see what it takes to create one of these new Gen 2 devices which by the way are only compatible with 64-bit flavors of Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2. Microsofts cooperation with Canonical just took a giant leap. If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you should have seen my other articles on creating and managing VHD and VHDX files using Windows PowerShell. However, they also require a specific disk configuration. These “Gen 2”, or generation 2, virtual machines These VMs can now support UEFI boot, among other features. When Windows Server 2012 R2 hit the datacenter, and with it a new version of Microsoft Hyper-V, it offered the option to create a new kind of virtual machine.
