Based on A Virtual OS
There
are several approaches to virtualization, including kernel
partitioning, a hypervisor, and full virtualization. Full
virtualization includes virtual
hardware. This is the type of virtualization that we have adapted to
create LINA.
In standard forms of full virtualization. the user
interface of the
virtual operating system appears in a window on the desktop,
just like any other application.
In
order to use this technology, users must exercise significant
technical skills, including handling virtual disks,
setting up networking, navigating the guest operating system
and interacting with applications that have a different look and feel
from those they are familiar with.
