Thinking of trialing Virtualisation in OES Linux? Gordon, one of our Novell engineers suggests the easiest way to do it is to create your own virtual machine. Here’s how:
The only snag Gordon found was that after the initial reboot "yast" failed to recognise CD2 of SLES 10, so he replaced the cd after cd1 was "done" but before the Virtual Machine rebooted and this worked fine.
ITS Feda can supply all your SUSE Linux licensing, support and training needs. Give Gordon a call on 0870 145 1600. |
