At uni i had a program that created a shell within windows to practise the command line interface.
Anyone recomend one? ta Si |
vmware and an os
|
Cheers, will it work ok with 2k??
ta Si |
I think you mean this Cygwin
|
no, I didnt :D
I was offering si an alternative to dual booting... which will let him run a full os in its own window, either with or without network connectivity and even its own mac addr. David |
I didn't think you meant it, I thought that's what Si was after, however it's not substitute for a full OS, which he could do in VMware (and I myself have used often). For practicing a few shell commands VMWare is overkill, a small disk and installing on that would be cheaper.
|
ill let you off then :D
Yeah but if I hear another dual boot question... David |
No, wait, I was wrong, disks are bad, get VMWare and backup the disk image for when you break the OS :rolleyes:
|
Dave,
so how about a dual boot and a how do I get my new soopa fast grapics card working in linux question ;) |
Should I use software raid to make Vmware quicker ? ;)
|
I dunno, my brain feel like degraded RAID 5 right now, buuuuuuuuh....
|
I found VMWare sooooooooo slow, I was running it on an 1GHz Athlon with 1/2 gig of RAM, I just gave up and made a partition for Linux and a boot disk and its much better.

Cgywin i think is that i was Recommended to use by my Tutor.
just borne and Corn shell programming. Anyone know if RCS is built in? Si |
Get a copy of Services for Unix (MS product). This gives you a couple of command line shells to play with.
Cheers Ian |
just borne and Corn shell programming. Think you might mean Korn <sigh> Jeff |
id just got in from work, food on the brain
|
