Re: [wlug] New Workstation Hardware Advice

I did a short stint where people were doing exactly what Gund plans to do. 2 GB barely cut it.

I remember Oliver, you said you might have a look at UML. Did you have the chance? How did it go?

UML is fine for most linux oriented purposes. There are some performance issues which can apparently be mitigated by patching the host kernel, although I've not really tested this one myself. Linux on an unpatched machine runs ok, but if you do any disk IO inside the UML, it hoses the host.
