    VMWare - minimum space for a virtual drive?

    What is the smallest amount of space I should set aside for a virtual drive running XP?

    as in

    "qemu-img create -f vmdk vmware/WindowsXPPro.vmdk ???"

    depends what your going to use it for, for windows XP i keep a min of at least 4GB or 8GB depending on design.

    You could always create an expanding vmdk image (keep in mind these dont shrink)

    Dacorr
    If Windows did not break, i would be out of a job...
