If your hardware supports VM then why not run it under KVM? All I did to get it
working from CLI was:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 fc14a3.img 6G
qemu-kvm -m 1000 -hda fc14a3.img -cdrom Fedora14a3-LiveCD.iso -boot d
b) I'm glad that it does (so far) attempt to install under QEMU
(under the virtual machine manager from Fedora 8)
I hope you don't mean the software emulated version, it will work (I did FC10
x86_64 on a Pentium-III as a hack), but it will be leisurely.
c) The GUI install wouldn't work, but I fell back to text
install.
d) I was disappointed that it would not let me select the packages
to install (I want KDE not Gnome)
Need the full install for that, LiveCD is GNOME.
More comments if I get any.
