Windows VirtIO Drivers

after install windows need install virtio.iso last versions:

Ventoy Install of Proxmox 8.1 halts at “Loading initial ramdisk”

I ran into the exact same problem. (installed proxmox-ve_8.1-2.iso using ventoy-1.0.97-linux.tar.gz)

The file /etc/default/grub.d/installer.cfg introduces the rdinit=/vtoy/vtoy option:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="$GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX    rdinit=/vtoy/vtoy"

In order to remove the vtoy grub leftovers permanently, change it to:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="$GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX"

Then run update-grub and reboot.
