I hope this is not too off topic. (If it is can someone please point me to a good place to find answers for my below questions) ----- I have been browsing the web for ages and can't find my answers.
PC-BSD continues to run fine on my Celeron 466. I am still in awe of its stability. Just for kicks I thought I would install Vmware Player and then the PC-BSD version that runs under that on my newest fast computer,) All works fine and of course runs like a rocket compared to my older machine. My first question: Can you easily switch between whatever you are running under Vmware player and XP. My second question: Is there likely to be any performance difference between running PC-BSD in VMware Player under XP and say just doing a regular dual boot system of PC-BSD and XP? I am reluctant to do the latter as I hate rebooting all the time and often dare I say it still need to be in XP sometimes. I like the idea of having the best of both worlds and being able to alt-tab between two operating systems, but having tried that command and many more to no avail I am wondering if in fact what I am trying to do is impossible.
