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...)
I didn't install directly onto Virtual Server 2005 but I did succesfully boot up a virtual hard disk with 9.3 I had installed under Virtual PC, on Virtual Server on XP.
It ran, but very slowly, even slower than under VPC. not sure why but 9.3 seems to run very slowly on VPC compared to 9.2. on Virtual server, I suspect the speed issue was partly due to the awful ActiveX (or whatever) console. Perhaps if you were running with no Gui and just connecting over the LAN, the performance may appear better. Virtual Server stayed on my laptop for about 30 minutes before I deleted it and went back to virtual PC as it just wasn't suitable for what I was doing.
