I use a custom Gentoo in a VMWare on XP all the time for LAMP development. Works like a charm.
Given how pokey Gentoo can be to install with all the compiling and such, perhaps you might start with a pre-configured one, and then just 'emerge -Davu world' as needed... (ps. I've not tried this one myself, I built my GenVM a couple years ago now, and just keep updating that one) http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/directory/64 D.Vin "You had me at EHLO" --E.Webb (10.04.05) > -----Original Message----- > From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Harry Putnam > Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2006 2:23 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [gentoo-user] [OT] gentoo inside vmware on winxp > > Using vmware on winxp and I see gentoo is not listed as a supported OS > like Suse is. > > I'm currently running Suse from vmware for that reason.
