Running Windows 10/11 Guest with GPU Passthrough using laptop running Fedora

Abstract

This is a full guide for people who wanted to set up Windows 10/11 VM with QEMU/KVM hypervisor enhancements for a laptop that is configured with hybrid graphics card like Intel/AMD + NVIDIA. This process will take about 1 to 2 hours, depending on your system's performance and your patience =)

There is another comprehensive guide you can follow here (shoutout to asus-linux team who made supergfxctl which is a very important tool for this guide). It is more up-to-date than mine. I would probably incorporate those information into my guide, but you are welcome to use this one as a reference!

Before we proceed:

This guide is exclusively for Fedora users because this distro is quite different to set up than other distro such as Arch. I would say Arch is easier to setup than Fedora, but sometimes you like to use Fedora than Arc

Thanks /u/FallenAege/ and /u/ShPavel/ from this Reddit post

How to use:

Take the download.sh file and put it into a directory where you want the files to be saved.
cd into the directory and make sure that it has executable permissions (chmod +x download.sh should do it)
Run ./download.sh and wee there it goes. Also if you do not want all the files, just simply comment the ones you do not want.

	UPDATE / SOLUTION FOR ANYONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM
	1.) Make sure your NFS mount in /etc/fstab does NOT have the "bg" background field
	and
	2.) Create: /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/override.conf
	with:

	[Unit]
	After=nfs.mount
	and then
	systemctl daemon-reload

	padding-right: 4px;
