hi everyone,
I just tried to use a dual boot W2K installation via vmware from my SuSE 7.2
box. Problem: I do not have access to the dev (hde), and including me into
user-group "disk" as advised by vmware does not work. Does someone know how I
can set write access for that hd??
Thanks,
Arne

Which incidentally is how Windows does it as well. It is just a little
harder to notice. :) Windows uses ASPI which is a SCSI API. The IDE
devices have IDE->SCSI/ASPI support in their drivers.

Read the CD-Writing HOWTO. Basically, you want to set it up to pretend to
be a SCSI device.

I'm sure that when BNZ was talking to the salesman about ATM and whether or not WinNT could handle it. The salesman would have said "Yes.." as they always do, and go on to say Microsoft has been supporting ATM for years. After all Adobe Type Manager has been around for a while now.

Exceed is excellent but _way_ expensive. Xwin32 (by Star...something)
is good and cheaper. If you install cygwin and XFree86 on Win2k you get
a "free" one and bash and lots of gnu tools to play with. XFree for
WIn32 was not very stable last time I looked. But was improving fast so
maybe it is usable now.
