I am a big fan of VMWare Workstation - it works great and is so easy to use...
However, I like open source.
I realize there's VirtualBox, but ideally I was looking to something to do the following:
- I keep a minimal system installed by default. No muss no fuss.
- I have various "virtualized" (or chrooted even) sub systems installed - mostly Ubuntu systems but could even be Windows (not necessary)
However, I'm having a heck of a time following the server guide and getting KVM to work correctly...
Is there a good guide for setting up say an Ubuntu KVM system that works on 10.04 (e.g., https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JeOSVMBuilder the tmpfs option fails horribly on stock 10.04 requires ppa which then has issues of its own).
