Quoting Ira Abramov, from the post of Wed, 17 May:
> to sum up, I think I'll go with the VMware server, Beta or not.

indeed, because of the falafel price and the friendliness of management,
I think I'll stick to the GSX/EXP/beta/server or whatever it's called
now.

so I'll be transfering the existing machines I have into the new
consolidation server. I was thinking I'd be booting up the new VM in a
minimal rescue mode from a CD image, give it an IP, and tar-over-ssh the
FS tree of the old machine. run lilo and reboot. Is there a better way?
I doubt I can just DD the old partitions into files and expect VMware to take
it from there, can I?
