My server is headless. I used (in this case) a WinXP workstation. I always point the CDRom-drive to be used in the (new) virtual machine to an iso-file, especially when installing. The ISO's of all my virtual machines are on my network, I use samba to get them. The 10.3 was a net-install, so I only needed the mini-iso, the machine is installed from download.opensuse.org. All the rest is a piece of cake, just like installing on real hardware. > >> >> > >> > Kind regards >> > Eberhard >> > >> > -- >> > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> > >> > >> >> >> -- >> L. de Braal >> BraHa Systems >> NL - Terneuzen >> T +31 115 649333 >> F +31 115 649444 > -- > Roger Oberholtzer > > OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST > > Ramböll Sverige AB > Kapellgränd 7 > P.O.
