| Ivan Wong <guest@mail.com> wrote: > It's seem too complicated (for me)... What do you want to do now: Install VMware on Slackware or install Slackware inside VMware? Both is possible and not dangerous, so why don't you give it a try and ask for help on specific problems you encounter? I have Slackware 9.1 running inside VMware on a Windows machine, and will gladly help you with problems you encounter, but I don't want to write a cookbook (besides I don't remember each minute step). I believe in the law of 'conservation of difficulty': if something is difficult, it will be difficult however you do it. You can move the difficulty around (e.g. to a nifty setup program that guesses what you want and makes changes as it thinks fit), but the difficulty will come back to you. If you follow a cookbook, and you don't understand what you are doing, you can get problems because a) something on your system is different from the system in the cookbook, b) you end up with something you do not understand. Sorry for the rambling, yours, Laurenz Albe |
