The Japanese Independent Administrative Legal Industry Technology Research Institute launched a new version of free Linux version of Knoppix on August 24. The new version of "Knoppix V3.4_20040517-20040820" is characterized by the Linux operating system but can be run as a Windows application. You can use Linux Emulator "Cooperative Linux" or CPU Emulator "QEMU" on Windows. ▲ Knoppix Knoppix running on Windows is the German Klaus Knopper Debian, which is based on GNU / Linux development. Can be recorded in a CD-ROM without having to install it directly from the CD-ROM. The Industrial Technology Comprehensive Research Institute is a Japanese language treatment. Missaki runs Knoppix as a Windows application through a combination of Colinux and QEMU. Colinux is Linux Emulator, which is developed by Israel Dan Aloni. Switch between the Windows and Linux kernels during runtime to reach the purpose of running Linux on Windows. Therefore, performance has declined, but there is no other simulation method is so serious. In addition, since it is running in privileged mode, the same operation is performed on the same operation as the local RINUX. If you want to install Knoppix combined with Colinux, you can start the installation software and answer Wizard questions. Same as VMware and Virtual PC, QEMU is also simulated at the CPU level. Performance is not as good as Colinux, and its advantages are not required, just click to click. In addition, users who do not have Windows Administrator privileges can be used.
