In fact it isn't at all clear that one can build a virtual machine with the server package. Aha. It's not?

Sorry about butting in here: I hope I'm not just blind but: Alexander, I didn't see a word of documentation in the server package about how to create a virtual machine. The README says to use `product documentaion' but offers no clue of how to start `product', There seems an absolute dirth of information for anything other than general settings one can make for a herd of vms.

Alexander Skwar I have no strong reason for choosing vmw-workstation. There are two minor things that make me prefer it: - I am familiar with vmw-workstation and I've never seen vmw-server - VMW-Server is beta version and masked as testing package If there were any legal issues with vmw-workstation I would use vmw-server or try the site pointed by Mr. Raymond Lewis Rebbeck: http://www.easyvmx.com/ -- Best regards, Daniel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
