Hi Thierrry,
Strange that the download I ended up with (using the emerge
installation files they provide)
seems to be 2.0. None the less the emerge inside of my chroot went
cleanly. I then ran the Parallels-config step and see this message:
Configuring Parallels Workstation 2.0 drivers...
Compiling Parallels Workstation 2.0 drivers...
Drivers have been compiled successfully.
Installing drivers...
Starting drivers...
Load Parallels Workstation 2.0 hypervisor ...
insmod: error inserting
'/usr/lib/Parallels/Drivers/Hypervisor/hypervisor.o': -1 Invalid
module format
Can not load hypervisor module.
Configuration completed successfully
Now you can run Parallels Workstation 2.0
Issue "Parallels" command.

Did you see anything like this?
1) Does it matter?
2) Is it possibly because of my chroot?
I'll comtinue on and see how it goes.
Cheers,
Mark
