Hi

what i would like to be able to do is to create a Virtual Machine and
install Virtual PC or Virtual Server onto the image and then install
additional Virtual Machines in that image.

The reason for this is that I want to store one image on a usb disk drive.

Is this possible or does anybody know of a way to do this?

Regards

D

It's not possible, and even if it were, it would be so slow it
wouldn't be workable.

You can install Virtual PC in a VM but it wont run.

Even if this would work the performance would be terrible. Why not just store
multiple virtual machine/disk's on the USB drive?

You cannot nest VMs, and why should you?

But what may be interesting for WinCE developers: It is also not
possible to run a Windows CE emulator inside of a VM, because the
emulator uses the same virtualization technology as Virtual PC.
