Hi,
I’m trying to figure out if it’s possible to install a driver in a hyper-v container, or in a general way what is the degree of access to the kernel from hyper-v containers.
Does anyone have experience with it? Is there documentation I can read to educate myself on the subject?
I install drivers and run the kernel debugger on Hyper-V VMs every day. The access to the kernel debugger is identical to what you get with a physical target machine.
Hi, Ron. I think Loris is talking about Hyper-V containers, and not Hyper-V VMs. They’re different technologies and as far as I know, there is no way of having third party drivers running on a Hyper-V container. The kernel is based on a Microsoft image and there’s no way of having your driver installed. I did this question to Microsoft team when I was attending Plugfest Containers at Microsoft.
