    Sorry, I won’t be impressed unless you get down to at least 3.1.

      CLI/GUI shouldn’t matter for Linux. The problem is that you can only nest virtualisation so far in hardware accelerated environments like SVM or VT-X.

      If you run software virtualisation (Bochs, jslinux, QEMU, 32 bit VirtualBox) you can nest until you run out of resources, but the VMs will get progressively slower as you keep nesting.

      I’m using the most trimmed Windows installs I can find (and manually trimming bits myself) to try and keep overhead as low as possible, but it’s still… rough. Don’t know how far I’ll actually be able to get. Once I get to XP I may just skip to 95, but we’ll see.

      I got sidetracked trimming Windows services on my primary install, lol.

    You can’t go more than three nested VMs. Maybe this could have changed in recent years. Chances are you may go to a fourth layer nested VM.

    I feel like an inception joke is appropriate here 🤣
