    i bought a powerbook with a 100gb hdd, i'm planning on using virtual PC to allow me to run A few UNIX based OSs and Windows OSs....

    Anyone had any problems doing this?

    Anything I should watch out for?

    How is the network driver support for virtual PC on other O.S's?

    TA.

    some of 'em might be fussy about where the boot partition is - I know for instance that if you partition your drive, OS X like to be wholly within the 1st partition. I can't speak of the others from experience except yellow dog which I abandoned because of the ease of BSD nature of OS X. It (yellow dog) wasn't easy to install.

    Virtual PC won't win any steeplechases.
