Speaking of vmware, the installation script should warn the user that VMWare uses sparse files in /tmp to back the VM's memory, and that if the partition that holds /tmp doesn't have enough free space, it'll bomb *badly*. A nice trick is: # mkdir /usr/tmp # ln -s /usr/tmp /compat/linux/tmp (provided that /usr has sufficient free space). Me, I already had /compat symlinked to /usr/compat, so I only had to mkdir /compat/linux/tmp.
