Very much, thanks. I tried both grep commands (what I know of
hardware would go in a gnat's eye.), got something very like the one
above, did "yum install kvm virt-manager," and got both plus ten
dependencies.
Is there a better way to get started than a man page?
Should I be getting rid of wine, or of the wine-install of the
programs I have?
Is there a way to get XP off my other hard drive, instead of a CD
or DVD?
