As the page says the arrangement is using VirtualPC to emulate a PC and boot DOS, I noticed that VirtualBox has an option to host an RDP/VNC server in the settings. Wouldn't that be easier to configure?
- EvanAnderson 10y agoThe VirtualPC emulation is for testing. He's running this on bare metal machines in production.
- ahoka 10y agoDamn how I miss VirtualPC, the emulation was very good, so you could test low level stuff easily. It had a complete S3 Trio VGA in software, which worked very fast, not like it's "successor", HyperV, which is unusable for Linux graphic desktops.
- fsiefken 10y agoWould it be faster then Virtualbox? I'm emulating Ubuntu on Linux with Virtualbox but perhaps switching to VmWare, Parallels or maybe VirtualPC will result in better performance.
- fsiefken 10y agoAh, that's quite nice! Although I'm not sure what use case I'd like to use it for... Although... I do have an old i486 with SB AWE32 with some sound software that only runs good enough on metal (not on dosbox). Now I can run it headless... at least if I can get an UTP cable there.
