 |
|
how can I operate 2 OS the same time?
I have 2 partitions.
The first : Gentoo Linux.
The second : Windows XP (The WinXP is already installd in a different partition not a img disk).
how can I operate both of them the same time?

You mean somthing like vmware or qemu ?

The speed is not even the best, but it´s working with almost every OS you´ll need.

No VMWare & Qemu has a Virtual Disk.
And I need something without that (duel boot without a Virtual Disk).

I am not sure I know what you mean virtual disk. You can certainly boot directly off your partition with qemu.
or whatever drive windows is on. Of course, you need write permissions for that to work. I do it all the time. |

When I do this command
Grub shows up, then I run Windows XP, & I have a black screen.
When I do this command | Code: | | qemu -hda /dev/hda1 |
It gives me
| Quote: | | Booting from Hard Disk... |
And it freezes...

That is because your Windows XP install has a kernel for your specific processor optimized. QEMU only emulates something like a Pentium 1 or 2, so it can't boot that Windows. |

It's just not possible if you want to be able to boot windows in qemu and normal.
Try colinux in windows. |

Do they work in WINE or Cedega? Windows emulated in qemu or VMware won't have the 3D acceleration support necessary to play many modern games. |

WinXP from an important partition to use is a bad idea because the "hardware" is different.
The "qemu hardware" is only:
| Code: |
- IDE-Controller with 4 IDE diskks (Diskimages)
- fd0
- CDROM
- Soundblaster 16 Soundkarte (aternativ ES1370)
- Cirrus Logic Grafikkarte 5446 PCI (alternativ VESA-VGA)
- Standard PS2 Rad-Maus
- Realtek RTL 8029(AS) PCI Ethernet
- serielle Schnittstelle (COM 1)
- Parallelport (LPT 1)
- USB-UHCI (Intel SB82371)
- Gameport Joystick
|
So, if you wont to use WinXp from your "very importand never crash partition" you have to deal with 2 differend hardwareprofiles. Thats not easy. The crash is a question of time.
It's easy to make a .img with qemu. Look here.
regards
Ma

Cedega is not working, I don't know how to work with it...
| Quote: | Welcome to Cedega!
Before you can play any games, you will need to install a version of Cedega.
Please use the TransGaming menu to do so.
|
And I don't have an account...

| The correct procedure for installing Cedega on Gentoo is to acquire the tarball (Cedega is a non-free fork of WINE), place it in /usr/portage/distfiles, and "emerge cedega". Otherwise "emerge wine" will install the free version. Depending on what games you want to run, the free version may be adequate. |

The file will be named cedega-small-5.0.1.tgz and you have to purchase that from transgaming.
emerge tells you enough
| Code: |
med eff # emerge cedega
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) app-emulation/cedega-5.0.1 to /
!!! cedega-small-5.0.1.tgz not found in /usr/portage/distfiles
!!! app-emulation/cedega-5.0.1 has fetch restriction turned on.
!!! This probably means that this ebuild's files must be downloaded
!!! manually. See the comments in the ebuild for more information.
* Please download the appropriate Cedega archive (cedega-small-5.0.1.tgz)
* from http://www.transgaming.com/ (requires a Transgaming subscription)
*
* Then put the file in /usr/portage/distfiles

| Registration seems to be necessary for online updates. If you don't have always-on Internet access or the online updating doesn't work, get "cedega-small-5.0.1.tgz", emerge cedega, run "cedega", and pick "install local update" from the transgaming menu. The update file is called "cedega-engine-5.0-1.i386.cpkg". |

| If the game is behaving differently in Cedega than Windows, the transgaming site might offer some help. |

The game works fine, but when I add a game I need to do install. This adds a shortcut which, suposedly, enables me to run the game by just pressing play. But the play button dosn't work and I need to "install" the game again the next time I want to play it.
