Hi,
I've been thinking that it would be very useful to have a VM running on
Haiku to remove the need to dual boot into Windows or Linux.
VirtualBox seems a good candidate and I've been looking at the
prerequisites here:
http://www.virtualbox.de/wiki/Porting_VirtualBox
I can see a lot of these components require a higher version of gcc than
the one you're using for binary compatibility, but I understand there's
a hybrid compatible gcc4 version of Haiku in the works. I just wondered
if anyone has any pointers about any of those components - what's
already been ported to BeOS/Haiku and what's outstanding, and how
feasible/difficult implementing the kernel component would be for Haiku.
Thanks,
Chris M
