And have your vm guests (win or linux including fc6) just install and work! When you are a little bit familiar, reformat your win pc with fc6 and go get the linux vmware-server. You just move the vm's you made (somewhere else temporarily) onto your linux disk, and they still just work. DaveT. Dave Thanks for the suggestion. I was actually trying to keep away from VMWare and Virtual Server as these install as services, plus many other components. The beauty of VirtualPC is that is just a program running and does not run all the time at bootup. I have managed to install Fedora on Virtual PC. However this had to be done as a command line installation. Getting the GUI to run took a little more investigation to use the startx command and modifying the /etc/inittab file to auto run on startup. The only issue I have with virtual PC is being able to install using the GUI as this does not support 24bit. I'm now reading a couple of books to get used to the system and see where I want to go from there. Many Thanks Paul <hr />Be one of the first to try <a href='http://ideas.live.com/programpage.aspx?versionId=5d21c51a-b161-4314-9b0e-4911fb2b2e6d' target='_new'>Windows Live Mail.</a></body> </html>
