Hi
Certain versions of Ubuntu can be installed automatically by fusion,
as well as versions of SuSE and Fedora/Red Hat.. Note though that at
the moment, none of the latest versions of these systems can be
installed automatically by fusion, you must do it yourself. Ubuntu
8.04.1, for example, can be automatically installed by fusion, but
8.10 (the current release) cannot.

Good afternoon,
Does Fusion support any other operating system installs as accessibly?
Thanks,
Everett

Hi Everett, yes, a VI user can simply enter their name / Windows
Activation Code and Fusion will essentially take care of the rest.
Smiles,
Cara :)

Good morning,
Are you saying that a completely blind user can virtualize
Windows XP on their own, using Voiceover, without needing
assistance with the installation of XP?
Thanks,
Everett

when you enter your name and your product key it installs
everything for you in the propper place
what you do is you can set up how large you want your windows
hard drive i.e. a section of the macintosh hard drive to be, and
then the program install windows for you and comes up talking
with narrator if you wish when you press the command key to the
left of the space bar, with U.
you can remap some of the keys but in general xp works great
under fusion. there is I believe a trial of the fusion program

Good morning William,
Can you please explain what you mean by "with Fusion you can
setup Windows XP automatically"? How automatic is it?
Thanks,
Everett

fusion works great
there are others though such parallels but I do not know the
usability of parallels since last I heard the interface was
inaccessible to voice over users
with fusion one can set up windows xp automatically and this is
extremel simple to achieve.
The other system I believe is virtual box, which runs under
mac os x now, though I don't believe it is as fully-featured
as Fusion from VMware or parallels

Good morning,
Can anyone give a list of the virtualization platforms that
they know to work well under Leopard with Voiceover? I am
used to using VirtualBox under Windows XP.
Thanks,
Everett
