OT: anyone using coLinux ????
 
anyone here using coLinux (Cooperative Linux)?

it allows you to run Linux on a Win2000/XP machine, looks pretty cool, the first stable version just came out on SourceForge ...

i'm going to give it a try ...

I think I know where you're going with this. I haven't looked at it. I use http://cygwin.com/ myself. It's been around quite some time now and is very stable. Small, light and I even set up X and used it to replace Exceed for my X Windows server on my work box. If all you're looking for an easy way to get Unix like tools for your windows box, you might try it. Your idea will work too though.

it looks more like the tip of the windows logo is going to ram itself into the poor penguin's arse ...

anyways, i installed it on my XP box and loaded a debian kernel and it starts up and runs great!

gotta play with it a bit more ...

I thought you weren't considering switching to Linux for the board...

I'd love to hear more detail on exactly how they're supposed to be getting in. I have some theories...
