QUESTION... Is it possible to install HyperVM in Sun VirtualBox?

[allofus]

Hello,

I have been hitting the search engine prior to asking this question and am not really any closer to a definitive answer.

Is it possible to replicate my x10 VPS using Sun VirtualBox?

Maybe installing HyperVM and the available distro's.

I would like to do this so I can practice installs and configs without touching my VPS which needs to be operational 24/7.

A local copy of my VPS.

Maybe there is a simple way to do this and I just don't know what to search for?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated fellow x10'ers

You won't need HyperVM, as technically, it's a similar (but by no means identical) product to VirtualBox, allowing virtual machines to run on the host hardware. Just install whatever software you have on your VPS, in the VM.

Ah, yea I get you.

So I can just install the distro of linux and run with it.

Why didn't I think of that sooner, like der.

There would be no need for HyperVM as Sun VirtualBox is already doing that for you pretty much. It'd be a bit redundant anyways.
