From a local PC's point-of-view, VirtualBox has the advantage that the wrapper is around 50 MB and has a fast GUI interface, even though complex operations must be performed from the command line (e.g. cloning VMs). I try not to use VMWare's VMServer which is around 500 MB and has a SLOW-SLOW-SLOW Java+Webbrowser interface. The question is: <I>Can FAUm use these .VMDK files, initially generated by VMWare?</I> Alf Hi, one of the advantages of using Oracle’s VirtualBox on my Linux host is that I can use .VMDK files initially created by VMWare which my work uses for server virtualisation.

It seems a little sluggish but that might be for several reasons. I’m going to check it out closer and post a follow-up article about it.

It's always good to know that are more independent vm software available! Did you notice if FAU is faster or slower than KVM or VirtualBox? Could we stand that running as a normal user/without kernel drivers slows the vm operation? Hi Kenneth, thanks for the tutorial.
