for add entrie in kdm manager for running only vmwapre player a full mode the point are:
1. Create “/usr/share/xsessions/windows7.desktop" and edit this with this lines:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Windows-XP
Exec=/usr/local/bin/startwindows7.sh
Icon=
Type=Application
2 . create this file “/usr/local/bin/startwindows7.sh” and add this lines:
#!/bin/bash
cd "directory of virtual machine"
vmplayer --fullscreen "directory of virtual machine/filenamewindows7virtualmachine.vmx
3. sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/startwindows7.sh
sudo chmod 755 /usr/share/xsessions/windows7.desktop

Is neccesary use 512 MB of ram for virtual machine or more.
Now in login startup of linux you can select windows7. Note: is necesary install windows 7 in virtual machine with iso windows 7 install jejejeje. :lol:

for create the live cd iso with windows 7 and linux you can use livecd scripts and instructions in this page: http://www.linux-live.org/

I can use other emulator symtem , qemu for example, virtualbox is posible that not load from live cd because ubuntu restring drivers of virtual box in kernel when it is running from livecd.
