== Facts about VM7 ==
* [[Forkies]] usually come on VM7 to eject the CD throughand [[AnyOSInstallBot]]install some other OS over the one you were attempting to install or type !reboot and !eject cd in the middle of an install or when you are using the system. (They mostly change the CD in the middle of an install)▼
* Due to the high requirements of Windows 11, attempting to insert the ISO will insert "Windows 7 Haunted Edition" instead.▼
 
▲* Due to the highTPM 2.0 requirements of Windows 11 (and the fact that VM7 does not have a vTPM), and also annoying children trying to install it, attempting to insert the ISO will insert "Windows 7 Haunted Edition" instead.
* [[AnyOSInstallBot]] may not be present sometimes due to it being offline or an admin kicking it (Possibly due to abuse of the bot)▼
 
▲* [[AnyOSInstallBot]] may not be present sometimes due to it being offline or an admin kicking it (Possiblylikely due to abuse of the bot)
▲* [[Forkies]] usually come on VM7 to eject the CD through [[AnyOSInstallBot]] or type !reboot in the middle of an install or when you are using the system. (They mostly change the CD in the middle of an install)
 
* Another retard thought [[AnyOSInstallBot]] was a shell script, and tried to execute a script to delete the user directory but failed horribly.
 
* An extremely common occurrence on VM8: People tend to try and install 64-bit OSes on Install Any OS ('''OLD OSES'''), which is 32-bit. It always seems like they read "older OSes" and think "It's just a clone of VM7" and try to insert his Pissta or Server 2008 CD into it.
 
* Most people that come on here don't know how to use part of the <code>boot.netboot.xyz</code> menu. They choose Windows, load the installer from nothing (boot with no base URL) (''Keep in mind, that choosing Windows expects you to load WIMs from a remote source''), leave the base URL blank when they are PROMPTED to put something there, load it again, leave the base url blank, try changing the architecture, and repeat.
 
== Tips for both VM7 and VM8==▼
 
* You are better off using this VM when no one is there (Join at like 1:00 AM EST), because I guarantee you one faggot is gonna come, insert his Pissta or Server 2008 (or maybe CHOCOLMOS) CD and install that over whatever you are installing.
 
▲== Tips for both VM7 and VM8 ==
* People enjoy installing operating systems that are already their own VMs. Instead of doing that, try installing some really obscure OS or a bootleg from Crustywindows.
 
* If you want to install Windows 7 on VM7, Consider doing !lilycd WinCHOC.iso, it's literally a [[CHOCOLATEMAN]] themed version of Windows. Make sure to select Ultimate during setup.
 
* If you don't want to wait so long for <code>!reboot</code>, you can alternatively open the webapp OSK and soft reboot the virtual machine by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
 
* When booting, go to iPXE command line and type in <code>exit</code>, this way you don't have to wait for iPXE to tell you that there is no network devices then let you boot to CD or floppy faster.
 
* The best bootset order is <code>nad</code>. Why? Not because that's a wordslang for testicles, but because by using the sanboot command in iPXE, you can still boot to the hard drive by typing in <code>sanboot -d 0x80</code>.
 
* Actually, the best bootset order depends on how you are going to install something on VM7. You can do <code>dc</code> if you're going to insert a CD to install an OS, and then eject it later and boot to the OS faster.
