And how do you get things into the disk image? Last I checked, this required either complex hackery to mount it as a block device, or burning a CD-ROM of the data. I should point out that I don't use VMWare either -- maybe if I had enough of a need for this I'd have time to spare to "add everything I like", but as it is I'm just waiting for the next bochs release (traffic on the mailing list indicates that an ethernet device exists in CVS) Daniel -- /-------------------- Daniel Burrows <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -------------------\ | Will the last person to leave the Universe please | | turn off the lights and close the door? | \-Evil Overlord, Inc: planning your future today. http://www.eviloverlord.com-/
