Had several old PCs over the years from relatives, but either gave them to other people or threw them to the trash because I didn’t see the usefulness back then…
Right now all I have is my PC (which I guess I could put VMs on), and maybe a few phones (maybe just because they kinda are there like backup phones), which I couldn’t find how to root, if these are of any use with unrooted Termux.
Do you have any advice about it? Should I start with my PC with VMs? An unrooted phone with Termux? Try to look somewhere that is gonna get rid of PCs or something? If so, where?
He’d be better off with a bare metal implementation like Proxmox.
Hyper V is bare metal. Hyper V is a type one hypervisor. The hyper v kernel runs under the windows kernel, when you run hyper v, the windoss you interact with is transparently converted into a VM, with all devices passed through to it.
Anyway the tools to manage hyper v aren’t anywhere near as mature compared to proxmox and it’s a pain when you hit corner cases so I wouldn’t recommend it, BUT it is a type 1, highly performant hypervisor.
