Make sure you use a supported version. I am doing the same thing but, it took about 3 distos to get it to load with out any extra work.
I've checked Redhat 9 and Knoppix 3.2 and 3.3, all of them work under VMWare without further configuration. The only thing I'll advice you to do is to install the X11 drivers shipped with the iso that has VMWare for running Linux over Windows, the speed of your screen will be much better. -- Jose Maria Lopez Hernandez Director Tecnico de bgSEC jkerouac () bgsec com bgSEC Seguridad y Consultoria de Sistemas Informaticos http://www.bgsec.com ESPAÑA The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles. -- Jack Kerouac, "On the Road" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ethical Hacking at the InfoSec Institute.
