About this tag
The hardware-passthrough tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about passing physical hardware devices, such as GPUs or storage controllers, to virtual machines or containers. A recent thread explores running Proxmox inside a Docker container, which requires hardware passthrough and extra host privileges but is noted as unsuitable for production. The tag focuses on the technical challenges and workarounds involved in enabling direct hardware access within virtualized environments, particularly in homelab or experimental setups.
