Has anyone got win4lin to work with 7.2.. I just found this today and
tried it..
However, upon install, it stated I was using a non-standard kernal (
yea, 2.2.17-mdk )..
I assume you're dealing with the downloadable evaluation copy.
What's happening is that the script is verifying the kernel version
you're running by checking /proc/version. The latest valid kernel in
that script is 2.2.16 and so you get the default 'no worky' response.
I would appreciate any help from anyone who has done this..
I haven't yet seen 7.2 as stable enough to do work with so I haven't
done it. There is a kernel patch on the website for 2.2.17 but I
think you're in a Catch-22 situation with the evaluation version.
There is both source and 686-kernel available from
www.opennms.org/~ben/ I can't vouch for whether they work or not.
What I will tell you is that in my experience, Win4Lin is a tremendous
software solution if you need to run a few Windoze apps in your Linux
environment. Their support folks are knowledgable and very helpful.
At the same time, they don't seem to have a clue how to market a
product and you're bumping into one of the places where they're
stumbling over their own feet.
