Can't you mount the image as primary master in VMware?
AdrianS
I don't think I had the choice
Kaj
You mount it somewhere when you create it, don't you?
Back later

Was watching Arnold's riots

I've re-installed yet again and gotten it to work by selecting the first controller - for some reason the installation defaults to putting the HD on controller 1 as the second device - the CD being the first on the same controller
I guess the logic in grub should be able to find it even on the second controller, no? In any case, it works now with the first menu option
riots?
btw, confirmed that the screen resolution isn't persisted
even with a clean shutdown
Kaj
Odd
More about the riots in Chit Chat
Do the virtual desktops work for switching resolution, as described in the Welcome?
AdrianS
yes
Kaj
GrUB should be adble to start from anywhere as long as it's consistent. Dunno why it didn't here, but in general, emulators are weird
AdrianS
easy to switch using alt key, so no big problem - it would be nice if there was a 1920x1200 one though, so that going full screen would use all space
Kaj
Sorry, have to leave again for supper
AdrianS
k - I'll make an image and post a link here
Kaj
Great
AdrianS
for the screen resolutions - could 1920x1080 be added as well? - that's my laptop rez - the other is my external monitor. The existing choices seem to reflect older 4:3 displays only
