Will running Wine & Virtual-Box at the same time cause problems?












0














I heard that you can't install more than one virtualization software at the same time, such as wine and virtual box, because that will create many problems.



Now Wine is not a virtualization software, can I install it in Fedora 29 even though VBox is installed and running, without expecting any problems? Also, can I have winetricks installed as well as the other two?

You can install what ever you like, but running more than one virtualisation software will be bad. They can interfere with each other, as they are trying to control special hardware.



However Wine is not virtualisation software, so it will be OK.

Accessing regular linux commands in Huawei's Dopra Linux

4 Backstory: I have a Huawei HG8245 router in my house and I want to change the default username/password. I've tried following this guide but the config file always gets reset. My ISP isn't helping either so I'm looking for other ways to accomplish this. The router has telnet access so this seems like a way to change the credentials. The first shell I gain access to looks like this: WAP> Pressing "?" gives me a list of available commands which I've pasted here, the two interesting ones are "su" and "shell".
