I'm installing Fedora Core 1.0 in a VMWare VM.
I created a 6G virtual disk and am trying to install
all packages. So far, I have two problems:
1. At the end of the install, it prompts me to make a
boot floppy, but then says the modules required are
too large to fit on a floppy. What would be so
special about the VM environment that it needs
so many packages that it can't make a boot disk?
2. X on initial startup fails. The monitor selected
during install was nonprobed -- default setting
(I just hit OK). The error when X starts is "Fatal
server error: no screens found".
Note, I am not going to load the vmware tools.
Thanks,
