  • Really GOOD way to 'DD' A Virtual Machine Into The Real World

    I sometimes set up VMs - VirtualBox or KVM - for
    experiments. Sometimes put kind of a LOT of
    effort into them.

    But HOW to convert those working images into
    more 'real world' images/ISOs you can install
    just like ordinary distros ???

    MX Linux has a fair utility for creating an
    install ISO from an existing distro. Nothing
    quite as straight-up as that anywhere. However
    my experiments are rarely MX.
