Another thought on vmware and bq..

 

I have found its handy to build a new distro using the instruction nuonce
provides for creating a new ISO for vmware guests running the Nu-CentOS-BQ
distros.   Because, they assume you have a certain size of disk (if I
recall, a min of 30 GB), which wastes a lot of space.  YMMV.  This only
really makes a difference if you pre-allocate disk space.

hi, 

 

i am trying to expand a bit my test server by installing vmware server on
centos.

 

kinda strange behaviour during installation, like i have nuonce gcc
installed (thanks again, Brian!) and vmware doesn't see it, and yum also.

 

and it asks me about, "What is the location of the directory of C header
files that match your running
kernel?" and i can not find it.

 

 

how could i overcome this?

 

 

thanks

 

 

Arthur
