The idea behind this new project (OSboxes) is to provide ready to use Unix/Linux virtual machines, so anyone can easily download and use it regardless of host OS, there are some reasons that other OS users may want to try Linux before they migrate to it, some users simply don’t want to dual boot their system or they have some kind of hardware issue (like locked BIOS and so on), and some people (like me) use Linux but also work on other distributions at the same time.
Run Android applications on any GNU/Linux operating system.
Anbox puts the Android operating system into a container, abstracts hardware access and integrates core system services into a GNU/Linux system. Every Android application will behave integrated into your operating system like any other native application.
Disk2vhd is a utility that creates VHD (Virtual Hard Disk - Microsoft's Virtual Machine disk format) versions of physical disks for use in Microsoft Virtual PC or Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines (VMs). The difference between Disk2vhd and other physical-to-virtual tools is that you can run Disk2vhd on a system that’s online. Disk2vhd uses Windows' Volume Snapshot capability, introduced in Windows XP, to create consistent point-in-time snapshots of the volumes you want to include in a conversion. You can even have Disk2vhd create the VHDs on local volumes, even ones being converted (though performance is better when the VHD is on a disk different than ones being converted).
