Hi,

and thanks for your report.

InterLinked <deb...@phreaknet.org> (2024-12-16):
> The Debian 12 installer (any minor version) fails to install on HyperV
> on Windows Server 2008 R2. For demonstration purposes, I am using the
> debian-12.6.0-amd64-netinst ISO installer.
> 
> Debian 12 installs on HyperV in Windows Server 2019, and Debian 11 (any

Do you happen to know the names of the Linux kernel modules that'd be
required to support those devices? You could try and run a Debian Live
image to check whether kernel support is missing entirely (from the
Linux kernel packages) or “just” from within the installer.
