It's a tiny bit annoying to share files between a linux host to a windows guest.
Right now, I have a firewall-protected samba server that can only be connected to from my VM to share files but I don't love this. When I tried webdav sharing via spice, though, the performance was too slow and a bit annoying to work around.
Should be worth noting that I'd like to work on most files in Linux, where I'm comfortable, and mostly just compile / run a terminal on the windows side to compile a project and run necessary software on a windows vm.
This seems like a job for SSH but seem to have a lot of issues connecting to a windows ssh instance from my linux host. This is most probably a skill issue. #virtualmachine
does anyone know of a stupid simple proxmox UI/API App or some other Hypervisor that i could give people access to self clone a BASE VM image and run it.
These are non-technical people that i want to basically give a Start/Stop/Revert option to, without to much more. and without having to spend hours teaching each person.
With recent news that Broadcom is "strong arming users onto subscriptions," we thought it would be a good time to remind folks of QEMU generic machine emulator and virtualizer. Read more: https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/QEMU#QEMU#VM#VirtualMachine#GNU
> Lima launches Linux virtual machines with automatic file sharing and port forwarding (similar to WSL2).
> The original goal of Lima was to promote containerd including nerdctl (contaiNERD ctl) to Mac users, but Lima can be used for non-container applications as well. Lima also supports non-macOS hosts (Linux, NetBSD, etc.).
I often share my thoughts, opinions, and experiences with tech. Usually with good intentions of giving free advice, that I believe can be helpful to others
But sometimes I also share my journey with tech as I experience it, and sometimes that means ranting a little when things don't go according to plan
But I never come to social media expecting someone to go out of their way to be helpful, much less code something for me
I would have liked to have used a side by side of 10.8 to compare the differences, but 10.8 is really dated (old) and no longer supported.
The development recommended Big Sur (11.7), so I went with that
At least for the installation, so far, it seems to be running smoother. My mouse was not lagging, and I could easily point and click my way through. I'll know for sure once the install is complete
I am upgrading my VM of macOS Big Sur (11.7) to macOS Ventura (13).
Assuming this works, I'll then shut down my VM, reboot my physical PC, log into LXQT, and load up using the modified scripts.
I edited OpenCore-Boot-macOS.sh to run with 1/2 my system.
I have 6 core/12 thread CPU, so I gave it 3 cores/6 threads. I have 32 GB of Ram, so I'll be giving it 16 GB. I even changed the video to use 2 GB (because the KVM default of 128 MB was nuts).
I could not for the life of me get macOS to run in Virtual Box.
So I cheated and download a premade VM of an older build of OS X Mountain Lion (10.8).
Perhaps it was good that I couldn't get a current release to work. Even though 10.8 is 15 years old and was last updated 8 years ago, my mouse lagged as I moved it across the screen
I presume it was a display (graphic) issue, given that I could still download and install software superfast
