I made a test install on a VMware Server installation (Host: AMD64 + Gentoo
2006.1). I created a VM (OS type other). Then i exit the console, changed in
the *.vmx file the key "guestOS" to guestOS="os2experimental" and start the
installation of OS/2 Warp 4 (german) from CD. Somewhere in between i got two
SYS... messages. After a reboot the install completes and seems to be ok now.
Hope that helps.
regards
Petric
