Virtulization is the new wave in this forum, so i decided to contribute a little on my part.

Qemu is also a wonderful virtualization software and its open-source too.

First of all download and install qemu for your respective linux distribution.

Then to run a live cd follow these steps :-

1. Fire the terminal
2 qemu -cdrom /dev/hdc boot -d
3. if you have a iso file then
4. qemu -cdrom filename.iso boot -d

The default RAM allocation to the os is 128 MB, but if you wanna allocate more RAM then type

qemu -m 256 -cdrom filename.iso boot -d

just alteraround qemu --help to get more help

more help on installing a OS using qemu will be forwarded soon, within two days.

Enjoy!
