Hello, On the M$ message board, a microsoft guy brought up that they have a problem with virtual servers using more than around 650 MB of memory. Since I used 1 GB, my server did not run. After reconfiguring towards 512 MB my virtual server run smoothly (Suse 9.3 installed nicely). MS claims that the next service pack for the virtual server should resolve the issue. regards, einar Andi Kleen wrote:

Hello,
I tried to install Suse 9.3 on Microsoft's Virtual Server 2005 (hosted on Win 2003 server) and I failed. Did anyone ever tried this successfully? (Or am I the only one foolish enought to...)
How did it fail? I dont know much about Virtual Server, but if you could configure a virtual serial interface and then boot linux with console=ttyS0,baud and send the log file then we might be able to figure out what is wrong.
Somehow there are linux virtualization technologies not supporting Windows and there is windows virtualization technology not supporting linux. Having a technology available that could convince both worlds to run on one server would help...
It might be simple bugs on the one or other side. With a proper report it might be possible to do something for the next release.
