Re: Virtualizing Win2K

Hi.
I was able to pass the files I needed by creating an ISO image and mounting it as a new CDROM.
Now I am still battling with the network problems.
Google loads (http://www.google.com) and search results are displayed also, but any other website is not shown.
ipconfig says
Windows 2000 IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter Local ?Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address :192.168.122.78
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.122.1

The Virtual Network Interface says it is NAT and Device model rtl8139

On Connection Details on Virtual Manager, under Virtual Networks it says
Name: default
Device: virbr0
State: Active
Autostart: On Boot
IPv4 configuration:
Network 192.168.122.0/24
DHCP range 192.168.122.2 -  192.168-122.254
Forwarding NAT

For me the weird thing is that google works but no one else does.

Ok, Virtualization history continues.
Made a new connection and  changed the emulator to i386 and the vga to cirrus.
Now I can get the Display up to 1280 x 1024 and 24 bit colors.

I cannot use the Windows VirtIO drivers, they do not work in Windows 2000. Maybe an older version? Right now looking forward to find out what was the last version compatible with Windows 2000.
 
Also I am having trouble with the network. It can only load the google website using Internet Explorer. I can even perform searches. But if I try to go to any other website I get "cannot find server or DNS error:" I changed the DNS on the Local LAN connection on the VM Win2k to 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4 but still the same problem.
What gets me is why can it load Google but not any other website? Is it because of how old that Internet explorer version is (Internet Explorer 5)?

Also I tried to Add a subdirectory from my Home subdirectoy to the VM and SELINUX said NO. Also tried to connect it to a USB drive but the VM either did not detect it or did not have the driver for it, so I do not have a way to sideload data to the VM. Is there any utility to add data offline to a VM image?

Thanks for any help

The top of my /etc/yum.repos.d/virtio-win.repo has:
# virtio-win yum repo
# Details: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Windows_Virtio_Drivers

Sorry - I forgot it was a separate repo and not part of the Fedora mix.
