Oh, that interests me: Which VM enables you to actually burn CDs? I |
39 |
tried Qemu once and were told at that time that there is no VM with |
40 |
CD-burning functionality. |
41 |
|
42 |
Did you actually burn it from within the VM, e.g. having that much |
43 |
control over your hardware or did you create an image you later burned |
44 |
with native linux tools? |
