coLinux -linux and windows together

#1 Post by saintlangton »

Stumbled across this:

Intesting way of running linux natively under windows. Basically it makes linux run as a process kinda like Qemu or VMware etc. but without virtualisation or emulation.

Perhaps Puppy could be made into a coLinux image?

I wonder how efficient it is, i know it claims to be running natively, but i still think its gunna be a bit of a higgle-de-piggle because windows is going to be consuming large ammount of RAM and processing power.
