Re: What 's the best way to install a window manager at the command

2004-03-22       - By Shan Jing

 Back

Believe or not, creating a few linux VMs in a powerful laptop and building a
small network with Linux are really fun.  I have 2 SLE8 plus 1 RH9, all in my
laptop.  All three can be fired up at the same time and make a full function
network - front end web/mail servers, iptables, mid tier - app server and
backend my SQL... thanks for the IBM power house laptop!

The SLE8 works very smoothly with VM.  RH8 seems to have some problems loading
X and NAT(sharing the host IP to access the public network). I started with a
very very small installation of RH9 (700MB) to get start on Redhat, now I'm
half way to a fully working copy of RH9.  All private networks work great
between the three Linux VMs.   Now, I can play with anything without breaking
any rules,

RH9 accessing outside world and X are just bonus play...

Well if you're gonna install on a VM machine and then screw up the package
system, what do you expect...?
