Hyper-V Windows 2022 boot loader error

Hello,

I'm trying to install Windows server 2022 (eval version) on Hyper-V (Windows server 2019 version).
I got the UEFI error with the message the Boot loader failed.

I tried with Windows server 2019 iso file and it works.
Few months ago I've installed 2022 Insider version without problem and today I'm not able to do it and receive the same message with the eval version.

Can you tell me is something was changed ?

Thank you

    We can fix this by re-creating the EFI partition:

    Boot the server using windows ISO and open command promt:

    type diskpart

    list disk

    sel disk 0

    list vol

    find EFI partition no, Windows partition

    I assume efi is 2

    I assume os is C

    select vol 2

    format fs=fat32 quick label="EFI"

    assign letter=V

    exit

    bcdboot C:\windows /s V: /f UEFI
