VMware and Fedora

[Chyld Medford]

Fedora Core 2 Test 3 was crashing during install on VMware 4.5.1 until I
issued the "vdso=0" at the boot prompt then the install worked fine.
However, after installation and during boot up, VMware crashed giving this
error right after displaying "Red Hat nash version 3.5.21 starting":

Any help with a possible work around would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Running FC2 Test3 and higher in VMWare is broken because VMWare needs to 
implement vdso.  For now you can use "vdso=0" boot option.  It works for 
me when running FC2 Test3 within VMWare 4.5.1 hosted on FC2 Test3.
