VMWare

Name: Anonymous 2006-02-26 19:36

quick question:
is it possible for me to get a Virtual Machine on VMWare to recognise an Alcohol virtual drive for installation purposes? (such as installing an OS on a virtual machine with an image file)
if it's a complicated process, please explain how or link me to where I can find how. thanks!

VMware can mount images as drives for its guest operating systems as standard.

CD images, I mean. can VMWare do that?

I suppose you can use Daemon Tools on your real OS to mount the image to a drive, then export the drive to VMWare.

Qemu can use .iso images as CDROM drives, and Qemu sucks. VMWare is supposed to be good, so it should be able to do such a simple thing.

Like I fucking said, it can mount CD Images as virtual drives for the guest OS. Are you fucking ignorant or just blind?

Took me 5 minutes to master VMware, and another few minutes to figure out how to use ISOs as drives, it's not that fucking hard, what's 1 and 3's problem?

yes this is possible. I actually had to do it this way to install Mac OSX on vmware.

Don't change these.
