I’m working on installing Mono again. This time, I will install Red Hat 9.0 on a Virtual PC and then install Mono RedHat 9 RPMs directly. My goal is to test ASP.NET on Mono to get a feel for its performance compared to Windows .NET.

On a Virtual PC, you can install any kind of OS on a Windows box. It’s pretty cool to test any new systems before installing them in a production box.

VPC does not support shared folder addition on Linux, so I have to set up Samba file share from the RH9 as file drop folder.
