Thanks. I think virtualbox might not be an option while qemu may be ruled
out due to being too slow for this application.
The leaves only Xen as an option.
I do not have any high end graphics requirements (3D etc). Could Xen still
be a problem. Here is a link to hardware specification:

May be I'll also try out Xen to see whether it works.
