lguest

Hi folks, does ROS run under lguest ? I'm currently building an lguest-based VM (mass-)hosting service, and it would be a cool thing if ROS (as win32 alternative) could be easily run there. My business model includes free VMs on spare resources, which can be quickly deployed (within a minute), for testing and fun. I'd like to provide ROS as one of the preinstalled images, so it will get a bit more audience :) cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------

BLIT/BLID
by Mario Frank 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

Hello, everyone. I am testing ReactOS for a few months and I am of the opinion that it is a really interesting Project. I am also here to anounce something. I saw on the homepage thay the ReactOS Team was present at CLD. Since I am Member of upLUG (Potsdam Linux User Group), I would like to forward a request. The 7. BLIT (BLID - Brandenburg Linux Info Day) will take place at Griebnitzsee (Potsdam/Berlin) on 6. of November and there is a possibility to present ReactOS on the BLID. If you are interested to come, you can find information on www.*blit*.org. But I have to warnyou , the website is german and I didn't find a button for changing the language. sincerly, Eladrion
