virtuilization and whole disk encryption
hi everyone,
i have a core i3 laptop running debian x86_64. my entire hardisk is encryped for security(i travel a lot).
im taking a oracle SQL class and oracle database 11g only packages for RPM. 10g packages for DEB but 32 bit only! i use virtual box to virtualize CentOS and im experiencing terrible performance. at first i thought " this i3 sucks!!!" so i was thinking about returning my new laptop for something with an i5 but the cpu can scale and the system monitor shows the cpu taking it easy so im thinking the bottleneck is due to my HDD being encrypted. any thoughts? work arounds?
i could use alien to convert between package formats but i know its experimental.
does anybody have experiece with alien?
i guess i could just use mysql.
what do u think?
