Hi, Over the last few days a couple of people have asked about WUBI liks process for CentOS. I've had to look up what WUBI is ( to save you time : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wubi_(Ubuntu) ) . Now the question: is there anyway to get something similar for CentOS ? or is there a process that someone might follow to achieve the same or similar result ? - KB

What is the use case for Wubi based installation of CentOS? IMHO is the CentOS installation process (also the Ubuntu one) very user friendly. The problem for most Windows users is the operation and daily use of Linux. They don't wish to use command line and miss their favorite software (Dreamweaver, Photoshop, etc). regards Sven

While conversation from this thread has gone into various completely nonrelated issues, no-one has actually addressed the issue I raised; which is : What, if any, process might someone use to achieve something similar. I dont care if its WUBI or *, the end result is what would be worth addressing. Is there a generic system / process / methodology that someone might adopt in order to get a CentOS install going without formatting off / away a windows install. vmware being a fallback option, if there isnt anything better overall. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
