Genode on Muen issues

[Adrian-Ken Rueegsegger]

Hi Lonnie,

Since the download issue was resolved on the muen-dev mailing list [1],
I will answer the remaining question of running Genode/Virtualbox on Muen.

As stated in the exchange on the muen-dev list, the capabilities of Muen
have significantly increased in the past ~2 years, e.g. we support
Linux VMs and of course Genode/base-hw (see also [2][3]). An overview of
the main features is given on the project website [4].

Regarding the Virtualbox support: we are actually working on this as a
side project. While we are hopeful to get Genode with Virtualbox running
on top of Muen, I cannot give you an estimate when this line of work
will be concluded.

Cheers,
Adrian
