19.7 installation on Hyper-V hangs at the "Select Task" step.

Just so this doesn't get left behind, I reinstalled OPNsense from scratch on my windows server 2019 hyper-v and I experienced the same freezing as in the previous version. The first time was at the point of selecting guided setup. At this point, I interrupted using CTRL-C and logged in again as installer. It happened once or twice again further on. I'm using a generation 2 vm with secure boot disabled. The settings are default.

If you would like me to test anything, let me know.

There are several topics on Hyper-V and Gen 2.
IIRC you can only be lucky with Gen 1.

It's been a while since I used OPNsense on Hyper-V, so I am rusty.

This is my first post as a new member coming from the "other" firewall.

To test OPNsense I recreated my network in Hyper-V on Windows 10 Pro. I was unable to install a Gen 2 VM because of installer hangs, so I created a Gen 1 instead.

After searching through the forums I saw someone posting a success by running the installer login from a SSH session instead of the console login, so I tried that and immediately the installer went on installing OPNsense on the virtual hard disk.

Good luck with that if you want to try it also.

I now have OPNsense in production and bought the book"Practical OPNsense" on Google Play store for 11 euro's to test the described network setup in Hyper-V.
