Linux in a Virtual Machine
Friday, December 26th, 2008I own a Macbook on which I’ve been running Linux 99% of the time for over a year now. Although a Macbook is not necessarily the best choice to run Linux, I made that decision because installing Linux on a Macbook is very well documented. However, as far as you can get, it’s always difficult to get a configuration you are 100% happy with (no subwoofer support, flaky suspend…). With recent advances in virtualization technologies, both in software and hardware, I’ve been willing to test running Linux and Windows (the guest OSes) inside Mac OS X (the host OS).
