When i set up this laptop, i partitioned it in 2. one for windows, one for linux. i have found that i am usng windows(mainly for program compatibility with VZWaccess) a whole lot more, but i still want to be able to run linux. so basically, can i have a windowed virtualization of linux from a partition, if that would even be the correct terminology?

 

basically, i want ot be able to run linux while running windows, but linux is on a partition. need it windowed.

* No performance losses like VMWare (linux runs natively on your windows machine)

* Access to all of your windows drives including all network mounted drives

 

and i think you can even run apps "rootless" (if you're clever) which means outside of the linux window

you can also run linux from a partition, which is tougher.
