[ILUG] VMWare

[Bernard-Joseph Roche]

Hi Guys and Gals (and those not sure),

I am looking to use the free VMWare Server product on a couple of
boxes. I would like to use Fedora as the host operating system (I
know, I know it is not supported). I could use Ubuntu but want to stay
with Fedora.

Anyway, my question is for those in the know is what is the minimum
(the bare minimum) please that I must install in order to support
VMWare. I appreciate that if the hardware doesn't work in the host
operating system it will naturally not be available in the virtual
one.

Do you need X? I know you need the kernel headers and gcc, but what
else is essential?

Thanks in advance,

B.
