The bootloader behaves like the Linux kernel: one can use an mboot [clarification needed]-compatible (a patched syslinux was used for the hack) bootloader that tells boot-dfe about the .img file (the ramdisk or initrd, as it's known by Linux users), and boot-dfe will then use the kexts (or mkext) from it. This new boot-dfe has been tested with ...
Unlocking the bootloader allows installing and running unsigned code on a device, including user customized software. Operating outside the manufacturer specification might usually result in voiding any warranties and may make the device susceptible to data theft, as the integrity of the operating system (as intended by the manufacturer) can no longer be guaranteed.

vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA) is the centralized management utility for VMware, and is used to manage virtual machines, multiple ESXi hosts, and all dependent components from a single centralized location. VMware vMotion and svMotion require the use of vCenter and ESXi hosts.
VMware Fusion 3 software for Mac OS X can boot Mac OS X Server virtual machines using UEFI. VMware Workstation prior to version 11 unofficially supports UEFI, but is manually enabled by editing the .vmx file. [147] VMware Workstation version 11 and above supports UEFI, independently of whether the physical host system is UEFI-based.
Some other products such as VMware and Virtual PC use similar approaches to Bochs and QEMU, however they use a number of advanced techniques to shortcut most of the calls directly to the CPU (similar to the process that JIT compiler uses) to bring the speed to near native in most cases.
Ready-to-use VMs with Microsoft or Apple operating systems installed, in particular, were not distributed, except for evaluation versions. VMware Player supported free-of-charge VMware Tools, which added significant functionality. Versions of Player for different platforms had their own Tools, not necessarily compatible with other versions.
Linux can be dual-booted on Macs that use Motorola 680x0 processors [5] (only 68020 and higher, [5] and only non-"EC" processor variants since an MMU is required [6]).The Linux/mac68k community project provides resources to do so, [7] [8] and an m68k community port of the Debian Linux distribution is also available.
The 1215B has USB 3.0 ports, as well as a CPU and BIOS that support full hardware virtualization in both Linux (via KVM, Xen, VirtualBox, VMware) and Windows (via XP mode, VirtualBox, VMware). The 1215B is the first of the Eee PC line of computers that supports virtualization.
