      The Installer version is 24.02-Beta but it can install 24.03-REL.

      If the installer fails choose 'Exit' then check the log:
      cat /var/log/daemon.log

          Looks like it failed to connect to NTP.

          Can you ping ews.netgate.com?

              Ah so DNS is not working. Are you passing DNS servers to the VM via DHCP? Are you blocking DNS somehow?

                @stephenw10 I am not sure, I just bought a nested server from a company and started to install hyper-v right away and disabled the windows firewall completely at my second attempt to ensure it installs pfsense but no luck i don't know how to unblock or block a dns.

                  If you boot some other VM does that have DNS?

                      Boot something else in hyper-V. Then try to connect to a host and see if it resolves.

                        This is from windows server 2022 vm. I assume i need to manually adjust some settings on network adapters how can i do that?

                          OK so it seems like whatever is running DHCP for those VMs is not passing any DNS servers. That is presumably some Hyper-V setting.
