Hi Terry,
I see by this old message that Terry and some others like VMWare so
I thought that I would go for that.
vSphere is the professional system that costs megabucks,
VMware are evil. http://laforge.gnumonks.org/blog/20151029-vmware_gpl/
But so are Oracle for reasons too numerous to mention. I'm sure that VMWare
will get their come-
uppance once it comes to court in Germany.
I've not used either, but https://www.virtualbox.org/ from the once
cuddly Sun, now Oracle, is an alternative.
3. I used to use VMWare at work and so it was a simple switch. For me it
'just works'; the installation
script does everything necessary, including prompting to install the VMWare
Tools add-on, without any
need to find the right version yourself on the website as you do with VBox.
Well, It's not quite that simple. It now wants Gcc installed and the
package manager says it has it, but the path doesn't exist.
it also wanted a key, but was happy to skip over it.
Peter
one step at a time...
