Oliver, I was well on my way of installing VMware-Player for i386 linux on FreeBSD until I encountered these error messages. Aug 8 20:44:09 BRSINC-VM02 kernel: linux: pid 12889 (dd): ioctl fd=0, cmd=0x6d02 ('m',2) is not implemented Aug 8 20:44:09 BRSINC-VM02 kernel: linux: pid 12896 (dd): ioct

Thanks Oliver I can just get the i386 vmware version and should install and run. Last question is there a x86_64 bit Linux module? Is one I'm development? Sent from my iPod On Aug 7, 2010, at 4:42 PM, Oliver Fromme wrote: > Sorry for the late reply, I don't have much time currently. > > May

Sorry for the late reply, I don't have much time currently. Maybe someone else from the -questions list can jump in, because I don't have much experience with vmware (I prefer qemu or virtual box). Paul Lambert wrote: > Thanks for the reply. I am attaching the bash output from the shell > scr

Oliver, One more time. I should have included this in my last Email. Instead of using the exact offset into the file and "dd" is there a way to insert a text "tag" such as codeStartHere_1 in the script then find this location by a search and then extract beginning at this location +1 and extract

Oliver, One last observation I have made regarding this bundle installer. The reason for all the size calculations is that the installer and code are offset a specific bytes within the file. Even if I correct the shell calls the file size will change and the code will not be extracted correctly.

Oliver, Looks like the Linux emulator is only 32 bit. Here is the error I get after installing the emulator and running the /usr/compat/linux/bin/bash shell. This is a x64 bundle and does not match that of the current architecture. Please download the x86 bundle. I would like to see if I can g

Oliver, Thanks for the reply. I am attaching the bash output from the shell script. This script implements RPMs so I am sure that I need the linux module. I had previously found a guide on how to install RPMs on FreeBSD. I have a printer that has an RPM that allows it to work on Linus. So I w
