  I like KolibriOS, it works very fast, but I have ADSL PPPOE connection, is it really true that the only way to connect
  
  with the internet is with QEMU or Virtualbox?
  
  If only I could easily connect to the internet and read and reply my email I would use it a lot more,
  
  for the speed alone.....
  
  thanks
  
  Other question, is it easy to set it up with virtual box under Linux or Windows?

Hi!
If you use PPPoE+ADSl then you probably can set up your modem to router mode (your modem'll connect over PPPoE, not your PC). Then you can use internet directly from Kolibri, if your network card is supported.
You can use almost any virtual PC - Qemu, VirtualBox, VMWare and so on. I prefer qemu for testing and VirtualBox for runnig KolibriOS. You can install and use VirtualBox easily on Windows, Mac and Linux

If you need help, I can write step-by-step instruction. If you don't need that help then please make such instruction for other peoples They'll be very glad.
