I have no directions for you, as I've never personally been able to get ArcaOS to boot under it (though I know that dixie has, and AFAIK, he uses it regularly - but that being said, I do not know what the network performance might be with it). Microsoft's Hyper-V is a no-go at this point. There are other hypervisors based on QEMU which should work, but again, would likely be tedious to set up. I have never been able to get ArcaOS (or any OS/2) to boot under Xen. Proxmox looks promising, but no definitive results, yet. Arca Noae "recommends" VBox or VMware in our wiki. Note that we don't provide support for any hypervisor per se, but we know that both of those *should* work, and have actually tested them in-house. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------- Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE, CWTS, EA Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC www.2rosenthals.com visit my IT blog www.2rosenthals.net/wordpress -------------------------------------------------------------
