# Installation  

The disk controller has to be configured as IDE. Neither SATA nor SCSI are
supported.

The network controller should be configured as PCnet-PCI II or PCNet-FAST III
for instance. INTEL PRO or Paravirtualized Network do not work.


# Performance

If [[QEMU with KVM|qemu]] is not available, VirtualBox reportedly has better
performance.
