Run on real Partion works better as large image file.
I's also interesting what do you do with colinux.
A small image file (500MB) works also very fast. In this case windows
cache the file in RAM. For Testing I'm using only small image files.
It's easy to handle a backup of this files. I use small file, less than
1MB also to share data beetween varius version of colinus, if I update
from one kernel version to other. I have a small booting image and
access with this to large partion on real linux for running data,
compiler and so on.
