I may be wrong... Well, I think that even if Windows itself can run unmodified, there'd still need to be a virtual BIOS, virtual VGA device, virtual IDE controller, virtual NIC device, etc. They'd need to be emulations of real devices, at least they'd have to be availabe until drivers can be loaded (and written, of course) for Windows that can take over and bypass the emulated devices. So the support for Intel VT/AMD Pacifica is just the first step of many, really. -- Derrik Pates demon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
