-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 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.
