    [ubuntu] Re: does a vm have a different ip than the host?

    Do a search on "virtualbox bridged networking". There's bound to be a good howto that explains the concepts as well as the practice.

    [ubuntu] Re: does a vm have a different ip than the host?

    Why do you think this would be difficult?

    Windows works well virtualised under vmware - without hardware support - can't see why it wouldn't under Xen.

    Sounds like it hasn't generated the kernel specific files (i.e. you haven't got it fully installed.)
