Ok...just finished installing VMWare Sever 2.0 Beta onto my 7.10 X64 install.
I do not wish to update to 8.04 as i don't want to f*** up my setup...i am a bit of a linux noob...
so please bare with me ;)
i finally got it installed after messing around with RPMs and such...and wouldn't you know it, you can't install i386 programs onto a X64 install (whoops :p)
all installed, and i can log in through the web interface. When i try to create a VM, get to the first screen where it asks you to name it and to select the "datastore", when i do that and click next nothing happens. Eventually the internet explorer window times out.
If i use TightVNC to remote to my Ubuntu machine (its headless) i seen that my CPU is @ 100%.
I cannot log into the VMWare server until i restart the computer.
Even restarting the vmware-mgmt service doesn't get it working.
I did goto post on the VMware forums, but it wouldn't let me register...kept saying that the community name was taken...grr.
so yea...any ideas???????
