I never install a guest OS using Easy install any more but was curious to see what happened if I did do this dumb thing. So I choose Easy install of Windows 8 and enter my serial and userid, customize hardware by deleting the floppy disk device and disabling 3-D acceleration. When I boot all I get is a screen saying "no valid image was found". I am using a Windows 8 CD (yes checksumed and all that good stuff). My host is Fedora 19. Version of WS is 9.0.2. When I delete the VM and rreinstall using custom install (I will install OS later). no problem at all which I anticipated since I've done this several time. Has anybody tried "Easy install" of Windows 8 and had the same experience? BTW Easy install does work with Windows XP.
