[Xen-users] Learning and new - any distro ready to install several OSs f
I am reading a lot these days about XEN and VT paravirtualization.
I would like to know if it does exists a linux distro live CD/DVD that
would allow me to install several OSs. I've read this implementation:
http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/knoppix/xen/index-en.html , but I cannot
dowload it
If it doesn't exist I would like a Live CD/DVD that would allow to
install a Linux system and ask for the disks of other OSs to install -
Windows, MSDOS, MAC Be OS2 and any other OS or distro - Then you must
be able to choose to clone installed OSs, and/or to make a DVD with the
ISO images of your OSs to install, and install it from this new DVD (It
would be ilegal to distribute this DVD done) or step by step inserting
Intallation CDs for each OS you want and having it ready in several
hours - I wish minutes, but installling an OS is still hard time, and
several, more.
Perhaps a mini Xen distro where you can choose your/s linux and other
OSs to install would be a great product.
I think that many gamers (as me and my friends) and developers (as me
and other friends of me) would like to use windows XP or Vista depending
of the game with paravirtualization and with no resident antivirus (some
scan sometimes is enough) for better perfomance of their games. And use
a (almost) free of virus system as Linux, for Internet browsing,
downloading, messaging, P2P and any other tasks with excellent opens
ource software, and let windows only as a frontend for games and some
exclusive applications.
This is a good time to develop this kind of distribution, becouse there
are a lot of people with dual installations of XP/Vista and
Tiger/Leopard becouse some programs doesn't work well in new OSs, and
even there are some that has XP64/XP32/Vista64/Vista32 becouse of better
performance for dfferent tasks or for testing their programs. If they
can convert with an easy tool their switching rebooting and menu based
with VT XEN this kind of distribution of XEN will grow as much as even
PC vendors would include it as default system(s) with Linux and Windows
running together.
I think this a a good slogan "RUNNING TOGETHER" for any vendor that put
Linux and Windows under Xen VT on their computers.
