Hi Stephan,
Indeed, I could install virtual box,
But where could I find info on how to use it and in particular to
install windows on top of openindiana ?
Thanks,
Marc

Hello,
My laptop (HP Elitebook 820 G3 with core i7 6600U @2,6HHz) is
running openindiana most of the time but some programs are only
available on windows and some times I have to reboot it on windows
(currently windows 10). The particularity of this notebook is that
it includes 2 SSD disks, a sata (openindiana, 1Tb) and a NVMe
(windows 512 Gb).
However I would prefer to run windows in a virtual machine on top of
opendiana. Is this possible and, if yes, how ?
Thanks
Marc

Hi!
I am using Win10 within VirtualBox. I think you can get this to work
with Win11 by enabling TPM...
Bhyve is an other option, then you have to setup Windows via VNC and
- after anabling net and RDP within Windows - RDP into your virtual
win11 machine.
i believe, a test with VirtualBox is an easier start (?)
Regards,
Stephan

Hi!
VirtualBox has a GUI. i assumed you use OpenIndiana with the GUI, too ?
Then you'll find it in the menu, in "system tools"
The command to start the GUI is case-sensitive:
VirtualBox
(Help on how to use VirtualBox you'll find in the net..)
Regards,
Stephan
