HOST Settings

Use the default vm-switch Default Switch.

New-NetIPAddress -ipaddress 192.168.77.1 -prefixlength 24 -interfaceAlias "vEthernet (Default Switch)"
New-NetNat -name "nat-network" -internalipinterfaceaddressprefix 192.168.77.0/24

Alternatively if you want to create a new vm-switch instead, use the following command.

New-VMSwitch -switchname "nat-switch" -switchtype internal
New-NetIPAddress -ipaddress 192.168.77.1 -prefixlength 24 -interfaceAlias "vEthernet (nat-switch)"
New-NetNat -name "nat-network" -internalipinterfaceaddressprefix 192.168.77.0/24

Hyper-V Shared Folder

Enable sharing on the target folder from the Windows Host and make it allows read and write. This shared folder must be created and owned by the adminstrator.

From the Linux guest, Install package net-fs/cifs-utils with the following USE flags.

net-fs/cifs-utils-6.11::gentoo  USE="pam -acl -ads -caps -creds -systemd"

Mount the shared folder through the following command as root. Here, the IP address 192.168.77.1 is the default gateway.

mount -t cifs -o rw,noexec,async,nodev,nosuid,uid=emguy,gid=emguy,dir_mode=0755,file_mode=0644,credentials=/root/.smbcred //192.168.77.1/hyperv-share /home/emguy/share

This is the content of the file /root/.smbcred
