Hi /g/ i'm going to virtualize a linux distro on raspberry pi. The thing is install some ubuntu flavor or another distribution as the main operative system, then with some software like (vmware or virtualbox but for the pi) install another distribution of linux( i am thinking in a light distro like puppy linux) and make it run...The main problem is the ARM Architecture of the pi processor, vmware and virtualbox are for another arch, can someone give some advice of how to start? I'll try the virtualization with QEMU.
Can someone tell me if this will run?

KVM is probably what you want. Based on some googling, it looks like it can be done. If you're looking to emulate x86 on the Pi, you're probably going to have a bad time. But if you just want paravirtualized guests you should be good to go

Does Pi's ARM chip even havea any Virtualization extension instruction sets?

It would probably be very slow (with the exception of paravritualization)

Well, I know that if I try to emulate an x86 arch I'll have a lot of headaches, but kvm does support the ARM arch? For that reason I'll try with puppy linux because it's very light.

I really don't know if there's a virtualization instructions set, and it doesn't matter if the system runs slow... i'll make an script to view how the system is affected and the resource consumption
>>
>>58772509
Yes, QEMU is tha way, read this https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/QEMU
>>
>>58772509
For what purpose?
>>
>>58772509
From what I've heard is, that rpi supports full virtualization, however I haven't tried it yet.
If needed, I would use paravirtualization like Xen, or containerization like LXC or Docker on such a small system.
I guess LXC can be used trough libvirt, so you might have the same experience.

1: Install Docker
2: Create container or your stupid other distro
3: Run that shit
