Installing SUSE 10.1 as a virtual machine on XP
To get SUSE 10.1 up and running on VMPlayer I created a Virtual machine at EasyVMX (http://www.easyvmx.com). The first roadblock was that my CDROM wasn’t detected. As I really didn’t want to load all 5 iso files I searched and finally found this fix:
# Settings for physical CDROM drive
ide1:1.present = “TRUE”
ide1:1.deviceType = “cdrom-raw”
ide1:1.startConnected = “TRUE”
ide1:1.fileName = “auto detect”
ide1:1.autodetect = “TRUE”
Hopefully that saves someone some time!
