Yutaka,

I am not aware of any minibsd images for vmware, but I haven't really
looked very hard for them either. 

I am using a FreeBSD install on vmware workstation to produce image
files that can be copied via "dd" to a compact flash or USB flash disk.
I should have a good image later this week. I'll try to create a new vm,
boot it from the flash drive and then dd back to a partitioned and
labeled virtual disk. If that works I'll put the vmware image up on my
ftp server for you.

Or, if you have a flash drive I can generate a disk image for that and
you could boot right from that. I just need to know how many sectors are
on your flash disk. The minibsd image is around 8 MB.

				...jgm

By the way, could you tell me the easiest way to run minibsd on a
virtual
machine server?  I have VirtualPC,  Parallels Desktop and VMWare thus
if there is an ISO image of a minibsd it'll so easy to test it for me.

Cheers,
