+* Running Guix on proprietary hypervisors
+
+** Hyper-V
+
+Hyper‐V is relatively popular solution for deploying a hypervisor. Especially in small companies.
+
+*** Creating a bootable image
+Creating an iso of Guix is trivial and described here in [[https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Building-the-Installation-Image.html][Guix manual]]. Unfortunately, such image
+will not boot on gen 2 hyper-v vm. It will not mount the virtual disk. This can be resolved by
+adding initrd modules hv_storvsc, hv_vmbus and hv_utils to installation-os definition in
+gnu/system/install.scm.
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC scheme
+  ...
+  (define installation-os
+    ;; The operating system used on installation images for USB sticks etc.
+    (operating-system
+     (initrd-modules (append (list "hv_storvsc" "hv_vmbus" "hv_utils")
+                             %base-initrd-modules))
+     (host-name "gnu")
+  ...
+#+END_SRC
+
+After that run
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC shell
+  guix system image --image-type=iso9660 gnu/system/install.scm
+#+END_SRC
+
+This will generate an installation image which will successfully run on gen 2 hyper-v vm.
+
+*** Installing Guix
+
+Create configuration file (using manual installation option) and add initrd modules mentioned
+above.
+
+*** Fixing screen resolution
+
+In case you would want to deploy a Guix server with graphics, to increase vm screen size use
+hyperv_fb. Add it as a kernel argument in your system config.
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC scheme
+  ...
+  (operating-system
+   (initrd-modules (append (list "hv_storvsc" "hv_vmbus" "hv_utils")
+                           %base-initrd-modules))
+   (kernel-arguments
+    (append
+     '("video=hyperv_fb:1920x1080")
+     %default-kernel-arguments))
