// Use ALL defaults
// When it asks to run vmare-config.pl say "yes"

// Prompted to compile vmmon, say yes and accept all defaults.

// Networking:
// NAT will allow a private LAN between the HOST and the GUEST
// BRIDGED will allow the GUEST to obtain it's own IP from your ISP or Router
// Host-Only will setup access for the GUEST to access the HOST only (i.e. No internet).

// Icon is in Applications menu or type vmware in a terminal or run dialog

// NOTE: NEVER run vmware as root (i.e. using sudo)
