I believe as a group that we need to diversify our knowledge of Virtualization. I think we - as a group - tend to think VM Ware when we talk about the topic. There are *many* different Virualization options out there and focusing on one would do us all a disservice. Mike and Rob have been doing good things w/ VM Ware at work and home; I'm getting up to speed on Xen. Anyone else willoing to pick up another option and run with it? We could have a night where we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of 3-4 differen technologies... Chuck -----Original Message----- From: "M.

Namely, I'll try to burn on my Linux host and the M$ VM will keep attempting to grab the disk and read it... the result is a lovely coaster. What I've done is turn off the CD-Rom access in my M$ VM. I've not tried to burn a disk in a Linux VM. Mike K. To unsubscribe send to ncolug-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field.
