Run Windows in a VM and get rid of the headaches or run linux in a VM in your windows install.
A LOT to be said for this approach, I haven't found dual booting to be a satisfactory solution for over 10 years. Still there is a problem if you want a linux machine on which you occasionally need windows. Your existing Certificate of Authenticity will probably NOT work when you install windows in a Virtual machine. Especially true of OEM installed Windows. So you are probably stuck with Linux guest in a Windows Virtual machine. Which works well with Vmware, but not so well with Microsoft's Virtual Machine package. My day job gives me access to MSDN subscription from which I can get legitimate (paid for) licenses of windows to install in VMs running on top of Linux, which is the best solution if you still have to run windows. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
