I installed Gentoo on VMWare under Windows, but that's no difference. When you configure vmachine on scsi disks - when booting, read help. If i remeber, you must use "doscsi" option. After this you should have /dev/sda. If you set disk for gentoo as standard IDE - you shouldn't have any problem. Take a look at vmachine configuration DURING setting it up. When you have set up machine, you won't be able to make some changes. -- Greetings, gajos
