Tr4nC3R 0 Posted March 5, 2003 Share Posted March 5, 2003 Me again, This is what I have and the prob I have, Sun ultra1 creator. I have linux OS installed(open 'BSD'(Woody)SPARC). I wish to run GR on it it, But posted here weeks ago and -feedback- is that there is no 'Flavour' of 'GR' for linux 'OS',and not one in the pipe. However I wish to run it on a 'sun' box and that cannot run 'win'. However is there some kind of emulator for windows that i can run ontop of linux 'OS', Using no partitions. Then I can run GR. This is just a hobbiest mucking arround. I just wanna see if it runs better than an 'intel' cpu based machine. While I am at it I can take use the other benefits of a 'sun' box's hardware capabilites. Processing !!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firefly2442 0 Posted March 5, 2003 Share Posted March 5, 2003 Can't you get an emulator that would run windows so you can play GR? Or maybe have a dual partition and dual boot system so you can switch between BSD and Windows? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hero2zer0 0 Posted March 5, 2003 Share Posted March 5, 2003 i use linix myself (slackware) and i heard about an emulator, its called wine. never tried it though cuz i have dual boot with win 2k installed as well. i guess u could use this "wine" but i dont know anything about it..just the name Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would have to agree doing it this way...even if you run an emulator...you're going to take a performance hit (even if just minor) It's very easy to setup dual boot...and then you can use MS for games and Linux for everything else...

Emmulator like you say . May research WINE. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
