Funny, I have used VMware 2.0.3 on Mandrake 7.2 with 2.4x kernel, 
Mandrake 8.0 with 2.4.3 kernel and Debian 2.2 with 2.4.2 kernel.  NT4 
runs fine in all these situations. (Don't know about Redhat 7.1) 

When a company says that a distribution is "not supported" it doesn't 
always mean that it won't work, just means that they haven't checked it 
out to the point where they would officially "endorse" its use.

I guess this is a case of YMMV (your mileage may vary)
