Hello all,
I have loaded VMWare
from the ports collection and now trying to
import a Windows XP virtual
machine from another system. I am
having a couple of issues though. <
1.
The system has 512M RAM on the system, yet VMWare only "sees"
16M do to
adjust this memory ceiling?
2. When trying to fire up the virtual
WinXP, VMWare says that it
cannot read the parent partition from the
file. I have adjusted
permissions on all of the files in the WinXP
directory, to no
avail. Any ideas why this is happening, or how to fix
/ workaround?
Anyone who has VMWare from the ports installed an please help. Anyone with answers is more than welcome to share
them.
Thanks in advance,
Ron
