Is it possible to run a virtual Windows (10) on a Linux host running something like virtualbox? It has to be normal Win 10 Home or Pro though, no corporate licensing.
I ask because I'm unsure how Windows activation (cursed be!) handles that situation. I'd like to be able to run the same host image on 2 different boxes (but not at the same time) and not have it moan about activation. So I guess the question is more this: does the VM hide/abstract the hardware enough from Windows to have it think it hasn't changed boxes?
(The idea is a portable drive with the VM on it would travel between 2 locations which are never used simultaneously. Each location would have an identical Linux box. Don't ask why; suffice it to say that speed is paramount and cloud or net access or remote access won't cut it. Lugging the entire box is not an option. Laptop is a very sub-par option.)
Thanks!
