Alain,
Thanks for the link. I'll try to make an iso here. I downloaded the iso from
the link you provided, booted it to get:
Processing archive...FILES.HUA
ERROR: Not enough memory
Process aborted
Bad command or file name
More fun to be had with this...
George

Yes, use a CD burning software to breate a bootable CD with the
netbootdisk image. It is explained in the site, or use this:
http://suporte.cosmodata.com.br/downloads/moni/netbootdisk65.iso
You don want the driver for your phisical board, but for one of the
virtual boards inside VMware.
much easier then what you are trying to do
