VirtualBox and Qemu networking

[E K]

Hi all,

I tried to install windows (so that I can do my tax return with Ufile) with both Qemu and VirtualBox on Ubuntu 6.10 over the weekend. Windows 98 on VirtualBox was unbelievably slow while Windows Xp was fine. For Qemu Windows 98 was just fine.

Getting host devices to the guests was a bit of a problem. I only managed the floppy and cdrom drives to work. I couldn't make USB key and network card (as well as the modem) accessible to the guest OSes. If anyone has success getting network connection from within the guest I love to hear.

Thanks,
EK
