Hey Tom You might want to check out VMWare Workstation. It basically emulates a second set of hardware for the other OS to run on. There a versions of VMWare which run on Linux, and there are ones for Windows. On top of it you can run different Linux distros, Windows, Dos, and FreeBSD. I'm not quite sure about Solaris x86, but I don't see why you couldn't get it to run. I haven't tried it on SuSE yet, but I used it to run XP on top of Fedora Core 1 before, and it worked out pretty well. I even had Adobe After Effects running on it, but I didn't use that for much... You can get more info at http://www.vmware.com. You have to pay for the software, but you can download a free 30 day trial. Cheers, Ben On Mon, 2004-08-16 at 17:01, Tom Nielsen wrote:
I'm getting a Sun W1100z workstation and am planning on loading SuSE, XP, Solaris and Java Desktop. Is there software I can get that will allow me to run any of those programs within SuSE? From what I understand Solaris 10 will allow a user to run multiple instances of itself. That sounds kind of cool!
