Sam,

Thanks for responding.

Some time ago I went looking for Virtualization software. At the time, 
VirtualBox was the best/easiest (My opinion) available. Sure, they have their 
problems and restrictions... But... the UI was pretty good and has been getting 
better. 

I did NOT do an exhaustive analysis... I just wanted something easy to 
use/understand... I didn't want to become a SME... VB fit. I had tried 
others... harder to use, difficult to understand... Difficult to configure... I 
have a background with Mainframe operating system internals... MVT, VS1, MVS, 
OS 390, zMVS, zVM, VM was/is my favorite.

 I wish they gave better access for NON Oracle users... They don' t like the 
"rc" kernels... I come across some strange bugs... but, nobody to report them 
to except for a "Community" that's almost a mailing list. I kinda like bleeding 
edge which is why I like Fedora so much. };-)...

You make a GOOD point regarding kernels and compiling though.

Have  you tried VB? 

Best regards,

George...

Why aren't you using the virtualization system that's included in 
Fedora?  KVM/qemu

No proprietary kernel modules or compiling required.
