Didn't want this thread to die out yet.
I am interested in installing VMWare on my stand alone system at home.
I have a PIII 600 with 128M. Am running Win95 on a 2.5 Gig hd and RH6.2 on
another 8 gig hd.
Is it possible to install VMWare onto this system with OS already on it?
Do I need more hd space?
Thanks,
Dave
