   Hi! Wilfred,   
      
   On Tue, 25 Jul 17, you wrote to me:

    PQ>> Puppy (linux v2.6.x.x) VirtualBox waiting while I'm    
    PQ>> working slowly through an FM config in an old XP VirtualBox.  :)   
      
    WvV> Do those two virtual box's use common drive space? (Then   
    WvV> you're ready ;))   
      
   Nope.  Na'er the twain meets, except via IP.  OTOH, one VM has a drive letter,   
   a colon, and path(s) with slants thusly "\", while the other has the same   
   path(s) with "/" slants.  A simple command-line argument will fix that, you   
   say...  ;-)   
      
   While I have your attention: how much RAM would be recommended for   
   Fmail/linux?  (The intended working Puppy vBox has been humming for six years   
   with 256Mb, running binkD, CM II, GoldEd and JamNNTPd, and, rarely ever uses   
   half of it.)  Too early to say yet?  Then say so.  :)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
