Subject: Re: Linux virtualization Hi, Your hardware probably supports hard ware virtualization so you should be a= ble to use kvm. YOu just need to install qemu-kvm, create a file that will= be the windows machines hard drive and install windows in the vm. The onl= y tricky issue is installing windows, you'll need to do a unatended install= unless you can do it visually (thanks Microsoft). btw if you are running stable I believe you would be well advised to instal= l a 2.6.32 kernel from backports, note I've always been running testing on = the relavent machine.
