I've been trying to get coLinux to work, with only limited success.

:: (no new partitions for instance, no grub), NORMAL speed (not run

:: although a jump drive version (under windows, no reboot) might be
:: cool), and
:: MAXIMAL reliability (if you're gonna use it, you're gonna count on
:: it), which

:: I've found QEMU would crash or disappear randomly in use, so

:: something it had a
:: problem with networking or file sharing wise. You were also
:: limited to other
:: people's setups. Their server is just a big heavy pig (IMHO).
::
:: So, anything useful here? I not only would like to run something
:: myself, but I
:: know a lot of folks who do too, but the little crashes and
:: incompatibilities
:: are too much for these guys. It's all work, no hacking for them,
:: and the biz
:: has them tied to windows (one would hope until they migrate
:: themselves and show
:: it can be done)... ;)
