What do you use your VMs for?

Pic related. One is for running Windows only shit like ROM converters and the other is for pure nostalgia.

I don't have it anymore. It only had like 3 Watamote screenshots in it anyway. I don't like feet really.

If you just want to dick around use something else. Xen is more for running VPSes and stuff.

virtualbox

>>51691051

It's actually WinFLP. It's not connected to the Internet either, and it only has a single folder shared which has the program I need to use. I didn't want to waste many resources but I was also way too lazy to use the clusterfuck that is wineskin. I think this actually saves more space than wineskins' bullshit anyway.

It's pretty hard if you dont already know linux. You are not allowed to get help from the internet in-class, and shit like yum is not allowed. The exams ask for very specific commands and an understanding of how everything in the OS works together. We never install a GUI for the whole class

sweet thanks
how do I run tiger in a VM?
I've dried 10.6 (since I have a disk for it) but both parallels and fusion tell me its an unsupported version
>>
>>51695960
Shit if you're running it in a VM you're probably going to want an Intel one instead. I'm not sure about VMs either, I just run old versions of OS X on old Macs
>>
>>51695970
i'd need an intel one no matter what because my oldest mac is a 2006.
the next oldest mac that I own doesn't even support 10.6 (the last that the 2006 can run)
>>
>>51695982
Yeah I always forget that Tiger's a ubi OS
>>
Used to use it for different services with xen/openvz, stopped when I realized that nothing was doing anything overly complicated so there's no decent reason to isolate them all. I just run them on bare metal and say fuck it.
>>
>>51695878
>>51695643
>>51695960
I downloaded the ISO from Kickass Torrents.
The one I could install in VMware was the 10.4.6 ISO. If you have an old Mac that can actually run Tiger though then just use that. Tiger in a VM is pretty broken. No working audio and QE/CI doesn't work at all, so the entire UI is CPU drawn or something.

>>51695911
That's PPC.

>>51695982
Just put Tiger on it without a VM.
>>
>>51696026
which one did you use?
they all seem to be abandoned

Those might act strange on a real Mac though. The only thing I can really think of other than that is to buy the restore DVD/s.
