I see instructions to install it in a VM, but is it possible to run it on bare metal?
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoI assume so: The only real issue would be BIOS compatability, so it might take some work, but it should be possible.
- vertex-four 10y agoWell, the main issue would be it requires a specific network card to talk to its file server.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoAh, missed that. Yep. I think USB, etc. are standard enough, so that should be it. With Intel motherboard, and Intel integrated networking, it could probably run in my machine. Wait. Graphics. %$&#!.
- khedoros 10y agoDepends on how graphics are implemented, right? Even a modern graphics card has some kind of support for older standards like plain VGA and VESA video modes, it seems like.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoYeah, but I don't even know if Mezzano queries for a GPU or graphics card. It might just decide to use onboard no matter what.
- carlesfe 10y agoI'm also interested in that, but I'm having difficulties in finding the bootstrap code since I'm not proficient in Lisp. Did anybody manage to find it?
