I am not a big workstation OS type of person, I use XP only
when I must. Longhorn seems to work ok in a VM.
I do agree that it isn't the right thing for all
situations, but half the people setting up dual booting blow it anyway. VM is a
much simpler solution for most people. Obviousy if you are doing perf or
physical hardware related testing it is tough. Heck even if you want USB you
can't use VPC, you use vmware instead. If you want to test 64 bit you are kind
of screwed too, oh wait vmware workstation does that as well...

know how that full-out testing of I agree, dual-booting
is not the optimal method to running different OS’s, but if you want the OS to
have the full machine, rather than the limited virtualized hardware that the VMs
are allowed – I think dual booting still has a very strong place in the testing
/ learning environment. And, make no mistake –
this is coming from a guy that when on the road, has a 250GB external with
nothing BUT VMs with VPC and VS 2005 R2 on his laptop. I love
virtualization…. It’s just not the right thing for all
situations. Rick From:

On Behalf Of joe I have no clue why it
wouldn't allow you to have different names for the OS and then both can be
joined at the same time, I have done this often. You did use different
directories for the installations right? Any more dual booting
is going the way of the dodo, the "new" thing is to virtualization software so
you have both instances up and running at once. Look at Virtual PC or VMWare
Workstation. From:

naser Hi list, I have windows xp sp 2 on my machine, I need to test
something so I installed windows 2003 server enterprise edition R2 on the same
machine same hard disk, I can see the dual boot screen and choose the OS, but I
can only login to the domain if one of the OS's is disconnected from the domain,
meaning if I want to login to the windows 2003 I have to go to the windows xp
and disjoin the machine from the domain then restart and login to the domain in
windows 2003, if I want to login to winxp I go to windows 2003 and disjoin it
from the domain then restart and join the xp to the domain and login, locally I
can login to both machines no problem. the error is that the computer account is
not found on the domain when I try to login and both OSes are joined to the
domain. I tried to rename the machine name to different names in each OS but
same thing happens. is there a way to do that? (login to domain using both OS's
without having to disjoin?) Thank
you |
