I think the other poster is not correct. VMware Server does allow you to set a physical disk as a raw-device of your virtual machine. However they do note it is for advanced users and probably isn't recommended. This is especially true if you're dual booting, because it would be like moving your hard drive between two physical computers (your real hardware and the virtual hardware). Disk drivers and other such things are bound to get confused. -----Original Message----- From: plug-bounces@lists.phillylinux.org [mailto:plug-bounces@lists.phillylinux.org] On Behalf Of Marc Zucchelli Sent: Saturday, May 06, 2006 10:52 PM To: Philadelphia Linux User's Group Discussion List Subject: Re: [PLUG] Is anyone running vmware? To further my question...I have a dual boot system, windows/linux. Is it possible to configure vmware to boot and run off of my existing windows partition? BTW, I need to run Internet Explorer, Dreamweaver, and Photoshop on occasion. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
