Thanks. My laptop is built with XP as base (corporate standard huh..). I am using vmware player (free edition) on this to run fedora 6. Will try upgrading this to 8 and update the list. thanks! amar kumar padhi www.amar-padhi.com pushed from PDA Message: 17 Date: Fri, 09 Nov 2007 17:29:47 +0800 From: Ed Greshko <Ed.Greshko@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: [vmware] check for Fedora 8 To: For users of Fedora <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <4734288B.6030405@xxxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Amar Kumar Padhi wrote: > Hi, > Need some quick feedback.Has anyone upgraded directly from fedora 6 to 8 on vmware. No...but define "vmware". Are you talking about F being a guest OS under vmware workstation or vmware server, or? What is the host system? Are you running the latest version of vmware (whatever). Make sure, if you are running vmware workstation as the host you have updated it to 6.0.2. I suppose you've not tried it yet. If you are running workstation and F is your guest...take a snapshot and give it a whirl.
