As I understand it, Colinux can either
use a Linux partition or a big Windows
file that acts as the Linux file system.
So could you build a Colinux CD that
used Windows autoboot? Put it in a
Windows box and it brings up Linux.
Has anyone tried this?

there are a few issues here
1: installing the colinux driver (not hard but is a system level operation
requiring admin privilages)
2: conflicts with existing colinux installs on the system (see point 1) we
need the ability to customise the driver name how hard is this to add?
3: networking (im working on this one right now and im nearly there)
4: a cd is read only so you would have to use a livecd style of design
its not impossible to make a workable colinux live cd (codename conoppix)
but it will require quite some work
