I have a Windows 11 23H2 VM with a SATA boot disk running on virtmanager (KVM/Qemu) on Fedora 39 that I want to convert to a virtio disk.
- in windows install virtio guest tools (download)
- create cd drive and attach virtio iso (download)
- shutdown vm
- in virtmanager preferences, enable
xml editing
- in the vm disk settings, go to the
xml
tab, backup the existing xml and change it:
