What About Colinux?

CoLinux is a wonderful tool for running Linux under Windows; it allows you to run a full-fledged Linux computer with no extra partitions, inside Windows.
I downloaded a coLinux - Pre Built Bundle (http://www.colinux.org/wiki/index.php/PreBuiltBundles#S03) it installed very easy just followed the instructions on the site,took longer to download than to install

CoLinux works inside of Windows no partitioning just extract then run the installer,the
bundle I used contained Debian,a very popular Linux I've heard

Couldn't get it to dial-out though, ain't spent much time on it probably something obvious I missed

CoLinux looks like it could "be a contender" it is really very easy to install

Uh oh... On dialup?
Sounds like you got caught with a winmodem (http://www.56k.com/reports/winmodem.shtml). :frusty:
Read the cons section... you'll see what I mean.

No I have ADSL what I meant is I couldn't get the TAP-Win32 Adapter to connect it works (in "status" I can see that it is sending/recieving) I just couldn't get coLinux to "ping" anything except my own IP

I'm sure if I spend more time at it I'll probable will get it to work
