Can I run a .vdi file for Windows 8.1. virtual machine in KVM/QEMU or VMM?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
Can I run a .vdi file for Windows 8.1. virtual machine in KVM/QEMU or VMM? Do I need to convert the file from .vdi to some format familiar to KVM/QEMU? What are the steps, if possible?
I have VirtualBox and a Windows 8.1 virtual machine .vdi file created under VirtualBox in a computer. I have KVM/QEMU and VMM in another computer. Both computers run Lubuntu 18.04 as host OS. I am considering to copy the .vdi file to the second computer and run it there.
I remember Windows 8.1 in the .vdi file has been activated by a product key. Will I be able to have the two Windows 8.1 virtual machines without problem?
Thanks.
