Subject: [Qemu-devel] VMKNOPPIX is released
To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org
Dear,
We released VMKNOPPIX. It was called Xenoppix but renamed to VMKNOPPIX
because it became a collection of Virtual Machine Softwares.
he others are implemented in a like-on-like manner
to maximise performance
- on the other hand, Hercules implements up to 4CPUs, which the others
can't, so perhaps people would find this useful for testing. Not
sure how that fits with the goals for VMoppix. If that matters.
- any
ll this computing
stuff quite easy. So I give them the instructions to get OS/360 going
under Hercules as a 370. What they usually do is make assumptions about
how computers work based on their experience and get it badly wrong. The
instructions are accurate but obscure s
pe of being able to explain the quantum mechanics
involved. Someone on this list probably can ==> now that's a Scotlug
talk I'd love to turn up to.
