      Hello BOB!              28 Jul 13 12:01, you wrote to ALAN ZISMAN:               BK> Well, that is step one. I was hoping the virtual machine would        BK> be faster. That and avoid excess writes to the SD card              It would help that you would know what a VM is.              A VM is a emulated environment, what is being emulated is hardware, Hdd's are       created using very big files, the VM borrows free memory from the host. A       netbook has hardly the desired horsepower to run a VM.              I am typing to you from inside a VM....              Host OS: Windows 8.1 x64 Core i7 8gb ram              VM emulator: Hyper-V              Guest OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x86, 2 gb ram              You can create bootable media to load a operating environment, in which they       create a ram drive, which you know is volatile, most of these environments are       intended as system rescue.              ==       Ross       Fidonet Feeds Or Fidonet In Your Newsreader: http://www.easternstar.info              See the third world, come to the Netherlands.              ...
