For whatever reason if you want to run your NT apps under Linux, try using
VMWare, www.vmware.com, or try Win4Lin from www.trelos.com if you just
need 95/98 app support.

yu can see what's inside an NT partition, or even write to it even though
writing is flaky ...

for mounting just pass the -t ntfs option to it.


as for running NT , maybe you can do it with VMware? dunno if htat owrks,
but it should. it is included in the powerpack but is commercial software.

Re: [Cooker] How to run NT within Mdk

2000-07-12 Thread Civileme

Well, if you want to run Windows applications, WINE does many, and if you want
to run the system you have two commercial choices

http://www.trelos.com/trelos/Trelos/Products/Product_Information.htm  (Win4Lin)
which will do Win98 variants at the moment,
and
http://www.vmware.com/  has a product that will run Windows NT, 98, 2000 on
linux but you need a fast processor and lotsa memory and of course the windows
license.

I have migrated my users to linux so that we no longer need windows apps, but
that is a rare occurrence as yet.  And for our purposes, we are inter operable
with all the rest of the folks.  (Fortunately we don't need any *.asf
capabilities nor are we likely to.)

VMware has in the past shown itself to be kernel-sensitive.  Often the kernel
has to be recompiled to accommodate it.
