I just downloaded virtio-win-0.1-81.iso from
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers
Looking through the ISO, I find two directories: WLH and WNET.
What are they?
WLH is short for Windows Longhorn which is was the codename for Windows
Vista.
WNET is for Windows.net which was Windows 2003

Also, I find a WXP and and XP directory. Why two of them?
The ISO layout is a bit messy, some drivers end up in WXP, others in XP,
I don't think there's a very good reason for that.
You can find some mapping table in
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~teuf/spice-nsis/tree/tools/virtio.py
mapping these directories names to more usual Windows versions:
"winxp": {
"netkvm": Driver("XP/x86", "XP/amd64", "(netkvm.*|readme.doc)"),
"serial": Driver("Wxp/x86", "Wnet/amd64",
"(vioser.*|wdfcoinstaller.*.dll)"),
"balloon": Driver("Wxp/x86", "Wnet/amd64",
"(balloon.*|bln.*|wdfcoinstaller.*.dll)"),
"block": Driver("Wxp/x86", "Wnet/amd64", "viostor.*"),
"scsi": Driver("Wnet/x86", "Wnet/amd64", "vioscsi.*"),
},
"winxp" is the 'readable' name, and then you have:
{ driver name: Driver(32 bit location, 64 bit location, file list) }
Hope that helps,
Christophe
Hi Christophe,
That explains it. Thank you!
