I am probably not understanding how to point Hyper-V to the .iso file.
I will be grateful for any advice.

Hi!
We don't see very many folks trying to use Haiku under Hyper-V.
(I'm a sysadmin by trade, and have never used it in ~20 years experience)
Is there a requirement for Hyper-V, or could you use something like
VirtualBox?
I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro to get access to Hyper-V only after repeated
that the .iso isn't being found on the virtual CD/DVD drive.
With that said, there seems to be a bug here about us not supporting the
emulated
video card: https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/16664
That issue wouldn't help, of course, though the error I get seems to be
Hyper-V doesn't look to use the standard virtio drivers the rest of the
industry
settled on (even VMWare)... so the experience likely won't be great today.
There was an article published back in 2017 about trying to boot Haiku
in it. It might be helpful:

Yes, I get the error while following the steps in that article.
