I'm not a home right now so I'll have to e-mail my notes and experiences from home when I get back. Suffice to say I'm not done yet, but I have been able to boot win98 from my ad0 disk, so I think I can get you past the "raw disks are broken, use plain disks" thing. As an added bonus ... I WILL collect configurations, words of wisdom, howto's and general knowledge about performing this VWMware setup and coalesce them into a web page, but I need them sent to me :) More later. -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds WCCG, CCE, Higher Levels of Abstraction | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 480-554-9092 pgr: 602-868-6512 | | jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
