Running Vivado on host from guest bash

riscv · 04-20-2017, 07:46 AM

Hello,

I have Vivado installed in my host (Windows10) and I want to run it from Virtualbox on a Linux 14.10 guest. Can anyone please tell me if this is possible ?

I have shared my C: with thye guest and can actually see all the files. There are some Vivado 2013.4.lnk that I cannot run using commands. How do can I do this ?

Thank you !

Linux can't run Windows programs. You'll need to either run the Windows version of Vivado in Windows, or install the Linux version in Linux. Very simple Windows programs can often be installed in WINE in Linux, but it's still being installed on the Linux system, and Vivado is not one of those programs, and Vivado has a Linux version anyway.
