Fedora Core 10 and Hyper-V windows 2008

now load FC10 onto Hyper-V Windows 2008. It failed to install on the first attempt. after a reset, it started to run. then fiddled with legacy NIC, suddenly I'm connected to the net so I can write this blog post.

This is a good start for me in the new year/CNY. I had lots of bad luck with linux in 2007. I couldn't even load a server linux distro properly for some bizarre reason in 2007.

the fonts are much smooth in FC10 Gnome than before. The Web interface is much better.

Windows 7 beta and Windows 2008 Hyper-V

downloaded MSDN W7 - beta. installed as Windows 2008 Hyper-V VM. it worked straight after the installation. it comes with ie8 beta. there is a new thing called homenetwork(?) upon first start-up. this home-networking thing is bit like setting up a workgroup network, but with an additional system generated password.

the computer performance scale is 1.0~7.9. however the VM can't be rated.

the version I got is Windows 7 Ultimate v.6.1 (build 7000)

Suse 11.1 and Windows 2008 Hyper-V

Open Suse 11.1 installed as a Hyper-V VM on windows 2008. couldn't get the legacy network card to work. it will get an ip DHCP address, but it can't ping or browse the net.
