I tried the new VMWare download for sage 2.4 on Windows XP. I downloaded the VMWare player and the two zip files from http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/SAGEbin/vmware/sage-2.4/ extracted both, copied SAGE0-1.vmdk into sage-vmware-appliance\sage- vmware-appliance and double clicked on sage.vmx
I got the error message: One or more of the disks used by this virtual machine was created by an unsupported version of vmware player. To power on or upgrade the virtual machine, either remove the unsupported disk(s) or use a version of VMWare player that supports this version of disks. Below is a list of the disks and their reported versions. Version 6 SAGE0-1.vmdk Version 4 Ubuntu.vmdk Version 4 swap.vmdk Removing these disks of course only changes the error message to: File not found: SAGE0-1.vmdk This file is required to power on this virtual machine. Use VMWare Workstation to repair this virtual machine. The readme.txt file for VMWare player says to use the help menu inside the "product". Opening VMWare player gives a modal dialog box forcing me to find a valid vmware configuration file. There not being any, I cannot open the help menu.
