Boot the cdrom/iso and install the os as usual. Now just run up the vmx file in the player. Also I think this will create files that can be used as ide drives.ДЈ.Create a vmx config file. Hey, Incase you donвЂ™t read slashdot? You can use QEMU-img.exe to create VMDK(VMare virtual disk files meaning you donвЂ™t need to download the browser image. In fact, i have (thanks to one of my computers getting fried) a stripped down (using nlite to modify the cd to remove unwanted components) install of windows XP running happily on 64 megs of ram on VMware, so yeah, it works, and is pretty much the same as installing any other OS The process is almost the same on linux, and you can, by editing the config file to point at a windows ISO, or windows install cd, get XP on it.

#12- If the processor on the host is 64 bit,you can run 64 bit operating systems. #7- iвЂ™m going to be working on that next holidays and trying to document the VMware playerвЂ™s config files, and methods of editing the HDD images(IE adding in files into the client from the host). #5-Its a workaround for some functionality missing in the free version of VMware.

I do believe that technically you *could* make a live CD with VMware player for linux, and add in the appropriate drivers for accessing images from a HDD(maybe Knoppix?).Its a total cludge IMHO, but could work. If i figure it out, iвЂ™ll be sure to let you know. VMware uses its own drivers to hook onto the host systemвЂ™s networking so its a little tricky. Pick the first option, to вЂњboot with el toreto cd rom driverвЂќ (default)ДЄnd then the second option, to run FreeDOS from CD command prompt. From thereД¬hoose to boot to the second option вЂњFreeDOS ** FAT32. Where you should choose to boot from CDrom. If all goes well, you should be greeted by Press escape and choose to boot from the CD drive at the next screen. Once this is done, save the edited vmx file and run it. Where C:targetcd.iso is the location of the disk you intend to use. While using daemontools, or a similar CD mounting program is an option, a more elegant method would be to use VMware playerвЂ™s own ability to read ISOs.ДЄt this point i suggest saving and making a copy of the browser-appliance.vmx file, since it might be desireable to use a physical CD-Rom drive at a later point of time. Not really desireable when you want to install from a downloaded ISO. The image i am using has been setup to use the physical CD-Rom drive of my system.

For most operating systems this is sufficient and you can change this later as needed.

Change the value of memsize to 64 from 256. IвЂ™d reccomend changing the settings as needed, though these are what i suggest. I used notepad for this, though any text editor should do. Once youвЂ™ve downloaded the browser appliance or whatever image you intend to use, the first step is to open up and edit the browser-appliance.vmx file. Replacement OS (must have SCSI HDD support)

ISO image or CD/floppy of FreeDOS (IвЂ™m using the ripcord distribution) or MSDOS 7.1 would work as well, but i havenвЂ™t tried it yet. contributed todayвЂ™s how-to for creating your own virtual machines.Д«rowser appliance or another virtual machine(browser appliance is the smallest one, by size, and thus I am using that) It lets you run virtual machines, but not create them. Last week the free VMware player was released.
