When my NAS APC UPS bit the dust, I thought about consolidating hardware.
Since neither the NAS nor mythtv backend require large powerful computers,
I thought about running NAS4free as a virtual machine under the same Ubuntu
system that is running mythtv.  Or I could use the virtualbox option on
NAS4free to run mythbuntu as a virtual machine.

Anyone have experience with this and could share some guidance??


I've tried ESXi, Xen and now KVM. ESXi ok with PCI passthrough, Xen wasn't
so I moved to network tuners. I'm running KVM now which works really well
with network tuners. I think if you're visualising you would be better off
investing in network tuners. If for no other reason than its easy to move
from one hypervisor to another if yours carks it.
