I have some questions about the PECOFF_SUPPORT kernel option and vmware3: When I include this option, can I run the PECOFF executables directly (gi= ven=20 that the files needed by the program are there) without other programs? Is there any reason for not doing so (especially security-related)? When I open vmware-wizard and create a standard virtual machine with Micr= o$oft=20 Windoze eXPensive Professional as a guest OS, it complains that this host= =20 doesn't have enough memory. I can't understand this, as I have lots of memory. Are there general security problems with VMware? Could you recommend other emulators? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Daniela
