Dear all,

Perhaps a bit OT, but I was wondering if there is a virtualisation
system available that lets you boot a dual-boot partition instead of a
virtual partition.
Say, I have a dual-boot system with Linux on /dev/hda1 and Windows XP on
/dev/hda2.
I boot the Linux partition and would like to run Windows from within
Linux. Is there a system which allows that?
It would be possible if the Windows partition is a virtual one, but that
way I can never boot Windows without Linux, if I would need high
performance.

Just wondering...

Don't know about any of the OSS virtualization systems, but VMware will do this.
