I should never tinker on the computer first thing in the morning when I have things to do. I was supposed to be cleaning the apartment, but spent all day building virtual computers. Most of it was trying to get Novel NetWare 5.1 and Netware 6.5 servers built. But each keeps blowing up during the install. 6.5 doesn’t like the video drivers. 5.1 goes into a restart loop, but I can’t figure out way.
When I got tired messing with Novell, I looked at what other servers I could build. Using mostly evaluation and free versions, I’ve built the following virtual computers using VirtualBox running on Ubuntu:
Windows XP Professional
Windows 7 Ultimate (Release Candidate)
Windows 2000 Professional
Windows 98 SE
Windows 2008 Server Enterprise
Windows 2003 Server Standard
Solaris 10
Fedoria 11
SUSE Enterprise Lunix
FreeDOS 1.0
and just to be a wise-ass, I built a virtual Ubuntu Server.
I wonder if I can install VirtualBox on a virtual server and create a virtual virtual computer? Yes, I know. My inner-geek is showing.
