<p>Glenn this setup is very effective. I use it too -- I run
current and I keep a partition with a stock 14.2 VM and -current
VM (both Virtualbox). When it's time to test, I clone the VM, do
my testing, then destroy it.</p>
<p>I keep the 'master' VMs up to date but stock in all other
respects so the clones are clean testing environments.<br>

<div>Hi -</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am thinking of buying a smallish laptop to dedicate to
Slackware. I've usually done double-, triple- and occasionally
more- boot machines, but my distro-hopping is (I think!)
coming to an end.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And I was wondering ... if I ran slack-current as my main
system, but ran slack-stable in a VM, could I use the latter
to work on my SlackBuilds? I'm by no means well-versed in what
is possible or impossible with VMs.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
