I need to install MS Windows 7 as a Virtual Machine on a computer that is running Debian 8. To do that, I'd like to use software that is not proprietory (I know, I know - this may sounds a bit ridiculous...). This Debian page: https://wiki.debian.org/SystemVirtualization recommends Qemu, KVM, VirtualBox, and Zen. Does anyone have recommendations for which one is easiest to install for a novice? I tried the first one, Qemu, but didn't really find a good guide how to install MS Win 7 with it.Thanks!
