I run a VB in headlessmode. The host is a VlizedLab (Debian) and I want to make a Windows Image for different Computers. The Problem is they have different hardware.

So I set a MAC-Address with VBoxManage but I'm unable to change the CPUid for the Guest. I tried to emulate one but it doesn't get recognized by the guest and if i turn off the hwvirtex Windows gets a Bluescreen.

On the old Network the host where all the same and only the NIC differs with the Mac. Windows wanted every reboot a activation. This was fix with the Mac Address.

But in the new Network there are a couple of different Machines and I am not able to set an Key for ervery one for every new rollout.

Maby sombody know how to setup a Windows Guest wich keeps the licens regardless of the Hardware from the Host.

Script which is used to setup the VM

Code: Select all

 
#!/bin/bash -x

VERSION=2

That's not something that is legally allowed by the Microsoft EULA. You have to have a valid Windows license for every PC that you run Windows on, either physical or virtual. We can't be seen helping your to circumvent the OS activation checks, so please refrain from such discussions in the VirtualBox forums.
