That doesn't sound right. How did you duplicate it? You should be able to just select the folder with your virtual machine in it and do an Apple-D to duplicate it. Make sure your vmware isn't running so it doesn't lock some files.

Hello all,
I have made a copy of my virtual machine (windows xp pro) with vmware.


If I look to the orriginal and the copy, the size and amount of files is not exactly the same:

original:
has a size of 5.34 GB 5.744.797.696
 bytes
16 directorys and 34 files


copy:
3.99 GB or 4.294.336.512
 bytes

37 files and 16 directorys


So, this is not totally the same.

Can I start my virtual machine for one time with the copy of my image (from a usb-drive) or the harddisk of my mac?

Thanx alot for the answers,

best regards,
William
