Hi folks,

if you use unattended with vmware (gsx||esx) server and the recommended
vmware nic, vmxnet, you'll usually end up with the problem that linux
doesn't have a kernel module that can use vmxnet, because you can only
use vmware's custom vmxnet module.

I wondered if anyone can help me with integrating this module into the
unattended linuxboot image. I'd create it if someone'd give me a hint
on how to do this (I already changed the linuxboot makefiles to include
the expat libs, so I already know a little about how it's working in
general).

The kernel module for vmxnet comes with the esx|gsx server and I
suppose it's not available for download on vmware's website. Therefore
I've just put the sources on my webspace [1].

kind regards,
stefan schlesinger.
