VMware Setup – Stage One

One of this things I did this past weekend was to get VMware Server setup and running on the new PC. The install went pretty smooth and I was quickly adding generic VMs. I started out setting up several different distros of Linux installs, including Fedora Core 4, SUSE and Debian. I need to grab my CentOS disks at work tomorrow and get that up and running as well. They all installed with minimal issues and should provide a great framework to really getting my test environment up and running. I will probably start getting some Windows stuff setup next weekend so I can have some of that to test with as well.

Once the replacement RAM is here I should have a pretty versatile test network to work with. Certainly a nice change over the old PI and PII boxes with low amounts of RAM I used to use!
