Hi all,
I am running VMware Workstation Player (Free version) 12. I have set up a Windows Server 2012 on a virtual machine and felt adventurous so I tried nested virtualisation.
I have edited the .vmx with the following
mce.enable = "TRUE"
hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = "FALSE"
So now Hyper-V and the nested VM are both working fine, with one problem.
The guest OS is a Lubuntu, but somehow refused to connect to the internet adapter I attached using Hyper-V (I tried both legacy and internet adapters). I have attached 2 adapters to try out - external and internal.
Lubuntu refused to connect to both. This should not be a problem as I ran Lubuntu on a laptop and it accepted wired connections.
I wanted to change the network settings for the adapter (promiscuous mode) but I could not find the settings to change it.
Anybody can help me get an internet connection?
PS: I know it is not practical to run this on a Type 2 Hypervisor but I have to do it...
