Virtual means not real, Virtualization means doing somthing Virtualy, with sharing of common resources.
Computer these days not meant only for calculation, most of our work depend on it. Most of us spent our valuable time in front of computer to make our work easy, we cant refuse if any body say our success is not possible without computer.
Well, if you want to make your work easier and somewhat more simpler, you will have to purchase a high speed and high processing Computer, which make your work very simple.
Along with good speed you always face a problem, of Reinstalling Operating System with all Applications, which always take a long time -- almost 2- 3 hours. So what you do if windows got corrupted. Well i will say, there is a way through which you can save almost 60% of your time during installation.
Now you thinking what Allahdin lamp i got, that i am saying you can save your 60% time. Its nothing just a thin Application.
VM ware is a common brand which always make their all software on Virtulisation, means sharing of physical resources without harming physical system, only you have to require some good configuration of system, I remember its VM ware Machine with it you can run a small network on an only a stand alone system, isn't it imaging.
Lets us Talk about its tool THIN APP, Just like other application of VM ware (VM ware Machine, server, Esx server, Virtual Desktop ), Thin App is also share a common platform of Virtulisation. It not only virtually run your application, even you can save there license and registration with in the application bundle. There is no need to insert the license again and again on every re-installation of OS, it just make a single Exe file which on click execute the program without installing it to the Hard disk
Let us take a look how to make a Autorun application with the Thin App:--
1. Install the VM Ware Thin App, on frash system, before to install other Application, when Installation complete click on its Icon to run.
2. Click on NEXT to proceed.
It actually scan your Installation directory (Program files)and registry to proceed further, If you think your system may take a diffrent path during installation then you may click on Advanced Settings, to select other drive also
3.When you select your default drive click at OK and then click at NEXT,
It will start its process of Prescan, which scan the directory which you allowed it to scan for changes, it will take some time. Once it give you option to click on NEXT then click at NEXT .
4. After a whole process, It will give you a option to Minimize the Thin app window and Install the software.
5. I am showing you a Example by just installing a Adobe Acrobat Reader 8, Just Install the software application
Finish the installation.
6. If your software require any product key, serial key then you should apply it too on the same time before Maximizing the window of Thin App, other wise Thin App capture only installed application without serial/ key.
After you done, Maximize the Thin App application, and click Next.
7. It take some time to capture the recently content installed at the system on "Post Scan Process" Just click at Next once it highlight the option of NEXT.
8. Once you click at Next, it will give you an option to select the installation files, it already selected by scanning, if you want a particular file out of all, then you can only choose that one and uncheck remaining.
9. Click Next To proceed, You see a window of project just like that.
Its nothing just for granting the right to open and execute the application. By default everyone have a right to execute it, you may select different user by clicking at Add. Here you find one more option of Sandbox Location, actually during Executing the program, it make some temp file to execute that, it has a collection of files needed it to execute, it automatically created when you click the application Icon to execute it. select anything as per your desire and click at Next .
10. It ask you to select the Isolation mode, its nothing just how to integrate with Operating system. Select any option and click NEXT
11. You can save your project at your desired path once it create a directory you never need to follow whole path again you simple have a option to built your application through only that project folder.
Along with the path, you will get some more options -- like installation of EXE ---you will get an option to built MSI, and Compression method.
One Excited thing I like about this software is that if you select Fast Compression, it never take too time to Execute the application .
12. Click on Next to Create the Object, Finally you get a option to built your EXE, Click on BUILT NOW, and click on Finish.
13. Search the Path where you saved your project, locate the folder BIN, and double click on it to open, you will find your whole EXE which you made.
You can Rename Bin folder as the name of your software and save it some where else.
14. double click on the icon of you application to open it.
As i already told you there is some limitation of Every software, it has also a limitation, if you trying to make EXE of your Drivers then you never do it, it has no effect on updates. If there is some requirement of your software, lets say if you install Office 2010 on windows XP it require XML 6.2, so if you make EXE of office 2010, then you must have a XML. 6.2 installed on the system which you trying to execute the office.
But over all its a very Effective tool to make and share application without installing and without corrupting the registry, of windows.

Install Windows Over Linux
Friends, as i already mention on my previous post that today laptops or Desktop of branded company have preloaded Operating system, so you must have to make some space or new partition on them to save your data.
If Linux is installed in your PC as a preloaded OS, and you don't want to delete that from your computer, but want windows to install over LINUX , then my post really help you.
Some one said its very difficult. and you have to install windows first then install linux like fedora, Red Hat over the windows. But nothing like that. just read my Posting you will succide 100%.
Lets take a example that Preloaded OS is Fedora Linux ,and you have 25GB Hard disk , It has two partitions like this
1 107M /boot
2 24.93G LogVol00
logical volume is the default volume on fedora/redhat linux , beceause it is very easy to manage ( You can easily add and remove partition/ or space within it ).
To install windows you must make some space out of logical volume, Please read my previous post to make some space or new partition in Preloaded Environment
Shrink LV (Logical Volume ) default Installation group of Fedora/ Red Hat linux and Resize Pre loaded Operating system
After reading it you are able make some space to install windows over it .
If you are trying to install windows server 2003, Vista or any other latest OS of windows, then just boot the CD/DVD and find the free space, and make partition on it and follow the online instruction, or its documentations
Rember only choose free space which you created, to install new OS, otherwise you lost your Linux. after booting from windows CD, it will display two partition one is around 100mb, other is windows fault tolrence don't touch them. Just after these two you see free space, just click on that and make partition
If you want to install 98, Windows 2000, or XP then may be it not show you any option directly to create partition or may be windows XP not boot from its CD then what to do.. don't worry. Just follow these steps, you need windows Xp CD , and a 98 CD..
click 'y' to go inside the fdisk when it ask to do so

just press 4 to display the forth option"Display partition Information"
It will ask "Do you want to give it full space to creat new partition........." press 'y' if you want to give it full space or 'n' to customize the partition size.
and press '3' to make 3rd partition active which u created recently.
now click on "Esc" again "Esc" to come out from Fdisk wizard and write command format c: with switches /q and /s
/q for quick and /s for transfer system file.
A:/>formate c: /q/s
E:\win98>smartdrv
E:\i386>winnt
Note:- Don't format the partition, if it ask to format then just choose the option "Leave partition without format"
After windows Install then Insert your linux CD/DVD and click on Upgrade installation and just rebuilt the boot loader after that both linux and windows will work.
Note:- to know how to get linux back read " Recovering Grub Boot Loader "
If you do step wise then you definetly Install windows over linux, without loosing your preloaded linux .

- Boot 98 CD with CD Rom Support. when you reach at A: promt then type "fdisk"
click 'y' to go inside the fdisk when it ask to do so
- After a screen appear like this
just press 4 to display the forth option"Display partition Information"
- It will display information of the partition of your hard disk, also display the status of partition ( active, dos / non dos and total space etc) .
- see the partition which are active... it show two partition which are active then click "escape" button of keyboard and press 1 to creat new partition
It will ask "Do you want to give it full space to creat new partition........." press 'y' if you want to give it full space or 'n' to customize the partition size.
- Now it creat a new partition click ok "may be it says it will need to restart the window to continue then press "ESC" and go at A:\> and write 'Restart' then restart the PC and boot again with 98 CD with above step
- At A:/> type fdisk and now press 2 to make your partition active .
and press '3' to make 3rd partition active which u created recently.
now click on "Esc" again "Esc" to come out from Fdisk wizard and write command format c: with switches /q and /s
/q for quick and /s for transfer system file.
A:/>formate c: /q/s
- It may say that quick format will not done, make it normal format, just press 'y' for yes, and find your CD Rom drive for windows 98 other then C: like here its E:
- Now enter command "cd win98" to change directory and "smartdrv" to install smartdrive
E:\win98>smartdrv
- Half of your work is done, now remove CD and insert Windows XP CD, find their Drive letter and write command 'cd i386' and 'winnt'
E:\i386>winnt
- It will take some time to copy the files and after that it will restart and boot the system give it some time, now nothing to do just follow the steps on the screen

Shrink LV (Logical Volume ) default Installation group of Fedora/ Red Hat linux
Hi, friends, as I mention on my earlier post that today Linux is also going to popular OS. So the Computer vender generally ships preloaded OS like Vista, LINUX etc to the laptop or Desktop, and only give a single partition for work on which already system files are Installed with it they generally hide one partition called recovery Installation . If you get any problem get attacked by virus then with a single button you get back to your previous stat at which you purchased your PC. But what about your precious data , well it is lost.
If you get Windows as a Preloaded OS then you are very Lucky because you get many stuff or software related to create /resize partition (on internet some are free) , which can make a room ( resize your existing partition and make new partition) to save your data. And by chance you get Linux like Fedora red hat SUSE etc then you definitely suffer more for that I already mention what to do, for detail see my previous Resizing the Preloaded Operating system
Now come to the point If you try to resize the LV partition (Logical Volume) on generally fedora/ red hat then you has to do some extra command line steps. Don’t worry these are easy as GUI, but you have to do some labor.
follow these steps for easy configuration:--
- Boot Fedora Installation CD/DVD at rescue mode
It take some time to go to rescue mode after boot , select keyboard layout and language, After that it ask you to choose the “NETWORK SETUP” so just skip it because there is no need to setup Network
New screen appear, which Inform you that “ The rescue environment will now attempt to find your Linux installation and mount it under the directory /mnt/sysimage” . Click “CONTINUE ”
- If everything is Ok , then you get the screen like this
after clicking on “ok” you get Bash shell
Now type the “mount” command to see the file system mounted on mnt/sysimage, also use df –h to see the disk usage , write down the results because you really need that when you take next steps like volume used etc
#mount
#df –h
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 is the LV group partition which you have to shrink so write down its size used space etc.Unmount everything under /mnt/sysimage and finally /mnt/sysimage itself. Use the "-l" option for umount if you get complaints about busy devices.
#umount /mnt/sysimage/boot
#umaunt /mnt/sysimage/dev
#umount /mnt/sysimage/proc etc
Now execute command “e2fsck –f” (e2fsck is used to check a Linux
second extended file system (ext2fs))and “resize2fs” with the size till
you want your new LV
#e2fsck –f /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
Remember one thing LVM allocates space in 32MB chunks by default, the new size must be a multiple of the LVM extent size. Leave 20% free space on the volume so that all the files work well. Don’t shrink full file system.
Now type “lvm” and then execute the command “lvresize”
Lvm>lvresize –-size 3G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
Now write "exit" and then again "exit". Here you done half of your work. At the LV group you created a free space. If you want only till that step then you leave it here, but if you want to make free space outside the LV group to install other OS then continue.
After writing “exit” at Bash shell system restart, so you have to boot it into rescue modea gain as mention above but now skip the step when it says it want to attempt to mount the system in mnt/sysimage directory.
Now you get Bash shell again, activate the LVM by the command “lvm vgchange –a y”
#lvm vgchange –a y
- and execute command fsck –fc on /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 to update /etc/fstab directory.
#fsck –fc /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
- If you have knowledge of Linux then there is a swap file system which is created after VolGroup00/LogVol00 that is VolGroup00/LogVol01 , so to make new room you have to first remove it and then again make it after the new LV. Don’t worry you just temporarily removing it
- Execute command “lvm lvs”
#lvm lvs It shows you the exect size of your swap file say it is 1.59G
Execute command “lvm lvremove” , “lvm lvcreate” on /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01
#lvm lvremove /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01
#lvm lvcreat ---size 1.59G –name LogVol01 VolGroup00
Now Check how much you can shrink it by executing the command “lvm pvs”
#lvm pvs
Write down the result
Now you can resize your /dev/sda2 physical volume to final size in between anything 10G to anything between 24.88G .
Execute command “lvm pvresize”
#lvm pvresize /dev/sda2 --setphysicalvolumesize 16G
If command fails then that means your shrinking size is too small because there are still allocated extents other then swap, move it like this.
Execute command “lvm pvs units s” ‘s’ for sectors it will display the partition size in sectors take note of PSIZE and execute parted to display the partion size in sectors (starting and ending ) and make note of that
Now here you already free the space within LV group, and shrink the boundry of the lv group, so you have just take start sector of LVM and reduce the end sector to shrink it but make safty mark after 64MB (131072 sectors) .
Then execute the commands “fdisk –l /dev/sda” and finally fsck –fc to update /etc/fstab
I get reference from these two posts so read these posts if at any point you not understand - Execute command “parted”
#parted /dev/sda rm 2 (2 is s/no of partition)
- And recreat the partition like this
#parted /dev/sda mkpart primary 208845s 40000000s
#parted /dev/sda set 2 lvm on
Then execute the commands “fdisk –l /dev/sda” and finally fsck –fc to update /etc/fstab
#fdisk –l /dev/sda
#fsck –fc /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
Now you got space as you desire, It’s a example you can put your own values to make your desire partition space .
