The process is: * export OVA from VDI from(60GB written) * Extract VMDK from OVA (another 60GB written) * Convert VMDK to VHDX (yup, 60GB) Surely there must be an easier way. *googles frantically*

"Why can't Linux just use the Windows as the underlying kernel" I mean, don't get me wrong, they built WSL but there was no "just" to that.
-
Virtualization is much less of a surface than a whole whopping kernel. But it was a mostly rhetorical question anyways...
-
Sort of. Think of something like USB forwarding, where you might have an ioctl in one hypervisor and it's just a virtual PCIe device in another with the rest in userspace. This is just a messy thing to abstract.
-
As nothing like this is handled in the hypervisor itself, but rather in the guest and host VMs, you'd think there should be a way to abstract that. *handwaving a lot*
-
I mostly live in QEMU, where kvm is this itty bitty thing. Virtualbox and Hyper-V have these huge kernel-side support mechanisms.
-
*host* kernel-side.
-
I haven't looked that closely at Hyper-V, though its vGPU support is super interesting.
-
I think you might always be in Hyper-V, if it's on.

The question that beckons is "why the f... can't I have HyperV *and* VirtualBox on my Win10 machine at the same time"? They don't have to be able to run in parallel, but just having HyperV installed hogs all the virtualization support on the CPU.
-
I actually want them to run in parallel, because virtualization based security features in Windows 10 release 1803.
-
Yes, that would be nice. But just being able to have both installed at the same time and use them seperately would be a great start.

A Tipp the forensic tool xmount can remount most types into other types making a dd of a machine usable as a virtual machine
