I currently run Win11 beta on one of my desktop PC 's. It previously ran Win10 Pro. While it is not my primary work PC, I have several laptops for that purpose.
I'm seeking to upgrade my knowledge and skills, plus learn about the current generations of OS's and Platforms, such as Linux, open-source application, technology platforms and Operational software, such Ansible, Docker, Kubernetes and many more).,
So, I would like to be able to:
Package up the existing Windows 11 installation,
Install Zorin OS 16 Pro over the original Windows 11 installation, and finally
Restore the recent packages back-up if the existing Windows 11 installation,
I have purchased Zorin OS 16 Pro this morning and will be ready to look start the installation process then.
I'm needing to improve my understanding of the identified platforms above, including multiple flavours of Linux . This being done for both employment and personal reasons.
I have a couple of Raspberry Pi's running a couple of different Linux distros (Ubuntu Server and Desktop), but I would also like to learn a Linux version such as Zorin OS 6 on x86/x64 chipset.
So, I am wanted to convert the existing Windows installation into a VM running under Zoriin OS. Any suggestions? Or I being too ambitious?
Yes, you can run Windows 11 beta in VMWare or in VirtualBox. While VMWare has a cost attached, it is a better performer and easier to setup and use.
VMWare or Virtualbox both tend to run just fine in Zorin OS.
This software is free vCenter Converter? Can I install this on Zorin and create this vhdx image? What I understand I need some external hard disk create this image and can start this any a linux distribution?
Good to have people what have experience on both side then can sayed what is better on Linux and what is a nightmare on Windows. If I stop playing on windows and try find solution on some programs what I using then I can use only linux what is more friendly for users. If I find solution then I can put some comments here from topic what are not gived a solution and share knowledge how fixed that.
What is better? VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client or Disk2vhd. Both will be recognized in VMware Workstation?
I want trying first VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client but there is many tools to configuration things. Anyone have some experience or can send full tutorial or link video? I will be appreciate.
