I've attempted it using the ACID distro under KVM, but it failed miserably. I couldn't get the URI to communicate to the virtual machine, but it may have been my own error, so YMMV :) If you try it out and it works let us know as I would still like to consider virtualizing mine as well.... 73 Stephen K1LNX On Fri, May 27, 2011 at 10:45 PM, Pierre Martel <petem001@hotmail.com>wrote:
Anyone here ever used a virtual machine engine like virtualbox to run a node or many node from a computer?
I ask cause at my club repeater we have a computer that is pretty good (dual 2.8 ghz cpu with 4 gig ram running windows 7 and we have some software running on it.
And i really cant switch this computer to linux.
so if I run the acid distro from a virtual machine and link the USB uri to that machine (wich is not too simple but doable) I think I would be able to run the app_rpt software while keeping the win 7 machine running smooth..
so anyone did that before??
