First off, TuxCrafter, thank you for this awesome script. I have had Vmware Server running on one computer or another over the past five years. Despite all those successful setups, vmware was always still something I dreaded having to reconfigure. This script really makes the process painless...usually...
I upgraded to 8.04 and I believe that is why Vmware stopped working on my computer. So I thought no big deal, I'll just do a reinstall using your script. I had an older version, tried it, it failed, so I dl'd the new one, tried it and it failed as well. I am sure I can dig on how to fix this on the net, which I will, but I thought you might want to see my log.
Thanks again for the great script....
