  Where do you put the virtual hard disk so it doesn't trigger the corruption bug?

  JR,

  Good point. The way I did, I put the virtual Hard Disk in the C: drive itself.

  The reason I did it this way is that for the virtual machine drive, I don't think I need to have tombstones or any other kind of gimmicks used to handle the DATA partition.

  Alternatively, I *THINK* a user would be safe in simply adding the virtual hard disk drive into a directory in the D: drive which is outside of the shared folders structure. For example, I use uTorrent on my home server and the temporary directory of incomplete downloads is at “D:incomplete downloadsutorrent” — and I never had data corruption issues.

  [...] Paul Scott hat einen Artikel verfasst, in welchem er beschreibt, wie man Linux unter Windows Home Server mit Hilfe von Microsoft Virtual Server 2005, einem kostenlosen Virtualisierungsprodukt zum laufen bekommt. Natürlich funktioniert das Ganze auch mit VMware Server hervorragend, welcher auch frei zum Download angeboten wird. Das Linux läuft dann in einer virtuellen Maschine, mit dem Windows Home Server als Host Betriebssystem. [...]

  JR, Pedro,

  Someone else mentioned that there might be a problem if you use D: disk. Not sure if this is true, but it does sounds reasonable, since this disk may be a “compilation” of several physical disks.
  C: is simply too small – I have 3 virtual machines installed and there will be no room to hold all their data.

  I personally made a virtual folder, without duplication, in hope that WHS will NOT try to do “smart” things on it. So far its running fine. I encountered once error saying “Cannot start virtual machine because its disk is being used by another process”. Not sure what this was, but its gone before I logged into server to check which process uses it, so waiting for this to occur again
