New to VB.

Post by tracer »

I would like to try Vbox. I have a Mac (coming...don't have it yet), so my plan is to install Windows 7 using Boot Camp, then later, boot to OSX, and install Vbox to run that same version of Windows 7 I installed with Boot Camp. I've heard Parallels and/or VMWare allows you to 'see' the version installed for BootCamp.....and use it to create (?) or initiate a virtual image??

In a nutshell....what is the best way (order to install) to use Vbox if I will have Win7 installed as a boot camp image?

Thanks!

Don't even bother with Boot Camp. Do it all on VB.
