They are CD's made by the BBC multimedia and run on Wx .I'm trying to work out how to use VBox (VMware wont install - libc conflicts!!) Anyone got any ideas how to get it to run mu already installed setup - can it work like that?Tom te tom te tom
I've only done it in vmware. it amounts to:-in windows set up a second hardware profile (optionally name them sdomething useful like physical and virtual) -install the appropriate sata/pata chipset driver (in vmware it's part of vmware tools but can be downloaded separately) -tell the virtual machine program to use the harddrive (in vmware server 2 i had to use the scsi passthrough feature to point it to /dev/sg0 but i don't know if vbox is the same)
-boot up the vm and choose the virtual hardware profile. -reactivate windows -wait while it discovers the hardware -install vmware tools equivalent -reboot vm (and always remember to choose the virtual hardware profile) -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
