There are several advantages to qemu. - it is portable so you have wider potential audience for qemu images - it is opensource so if you identify an issue with the emulation you can more likely get it fixed and avoid polluting your source with workarounds for emulation bugs - it emulates multiple network cards which was one of the issues with vmware - it can run completely in userspace (although with decreased performance) avoiding the issues of crashing the host system with executing the guest system in kernel Thanks Michal > > If you wish please reply to the list to get a wider discussion: > [email protected] > > [email protected], if you want to continue this discussion you'll need to > subscribe at > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/capros-devel > > -Charlie > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ CapROS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/capros-devel
