Fair enough, though I'd like to try it as an exercise.
I have an ML370 with P3/933 and 1.25 GB RAM on which I have
installed Microsoft Virtual Server 2005.
Would that work? How much RAM should I allocate to the VM?
I am running Solaris 10 with Sunray server and Windows connector
on a Netra with 256 Meg RAM. Does the X86 version require more
RAM than the Sparc version?
