  THIS IS A WIP PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS IN THE DISCUSSIONS PAGE. THANKS

CoLinux

CoLinux provides a virtualized Linux environment under Windows, much like Virtual Box or vmware. However there is much less overhead.

use the [ File: Mini_AlpineLinux_2_0_512MB | Alpine mini 512 GB filesystem attached ]

1. install coLinux [ File: coLinux-0.7.7.1.exe | coLinux 0.7.7.1 (July 2010) ]
2. install [ File: Mini_AlpineLinux_2_0_512MB | Alpine mini 512 GB filesystem attached ]

   cd C:\Program Files\coLinux
   tar xzf coAlpine-2.0.tar.gz 

1. run coAlpine/_start.bat. This will start Alpine 2.0 in a coLinux environment.
2. connect console to Alpine colinux-console-nt.exe. This will connect to Alpine.

Networking

There are three different types of networking:

• slirp - recommend following

eth0=slirp,,tcp:22:22/tcp:443:443/tcp:5666:5666
#eth0=pcap-bridge,"Wireless Network Connection",00:43:4F:4E:45:31

• set

External Devices

I like to install packages locally. Can use the Alpine iso and mount.
