General TC > Tiny Core on Virtual Machines
software wanted: vmware player and/or virtualbox
dWLkR:
hi!
first off: TCL: great OS!
second: it would be nice if vmwar player and/or virtualbox could be installed on TCL because TCL could be some kind of baremetal kickoff-plattform for VMs...
thank you in advance!
dWLkR:
*hmpf*
again an I call it: "no-reply-to-my-extremly-intelligent-and-interessting-topics"-forum - short: nrmeii-forum... :<
so 2 scenarios would be possible:
(1) a user replies with "why don't u use <insert app name here> for virtualization?!" - my guess would be: qemu...
(2) no reply at all...
but hey... guys - i am a friend of an open communication - wouldn't it be totally f*ck*ng awesome - if we would have TCL + (i.e.) virtualbox? i mean... think of the nearless endless possibilities - maybe we would need some more drivers (especially [W]LAN, UMTS-modem stuff) - but then... OMG it would be so cool...
PLSSSSSSSSSSSSS can someone make it real?
tia! (really!)

that's why i didn't say anything.
i thought about it... anyway i have nothing against people installing virtualbox (i almost linked to the gpl open source edition so they could make it an extension, you'll be able to guess why i didn't) or vmware or even microsoft virtual pc (there's no accounting for taste) but what i want right now is qemu (not virtualbox, not even virtualbox ose.)
i thought it would be pointless to ask people to compile virtualbox if they haven't compiled qemu, and i thought it would be trollish when i've already asked for qemu to say "no, don't compile virtualbox, qemu is better!" that's both your scenarios, (except the one where you insist.)
dWLkR:
hi tobiaus!
thank you for your reply!
what kind of performance do u expect - if i.e. winxp+sp3 is in a qemu-environment instead of a vbox-environment?! (expected replies: vbox should be 30% faster... or sth. like that!)
host-data:
- p4 2ghz
- 1gb ram
tia!
tobiaus:
i could guess but it would be meaningless. the simplicity (this is a word that means lots of different things) and reliability are the reasons for my interest in qemu. i'd be very happy to see both qemu and virtualbox ose (i don't think standard virtualbox is something we can put up for download/redistribution, but we could create a download script like the ones for flash and skype) available as tce/tczs.
i couldn't tell you if virtualbox is better or how much, i'm sure it's a very nice piece of software, just like opera is. (that much i know, i've used opera.)
