Can't install OSX Big Sur as a VM.

[Robv9]

Parallels 17.1.1 Pro on OSX Monterey 12.1
I wanna create an OSX Big Sur Virtual Machine, but it fails.

- Downloaded full OSX Big Sur installer from within MDS application.
It downloaded as a .dmg file
- In Parallels Control Center, i click plus sign > install from image file.
I drop the .dmg file onto the Installation Assistant window.
Outcome: error message: "unable to detect operating system"
When i continue anyway, i get another error.

Anyone to the rescue please ?

Kind Regards.
