No new partition is needed. VMware virtual disks are created as files
within the hosts OS. That's not a lot of free space to play with, but
enough to experiment with. Here's a sample of a directory of assorted
VMware VMs:
[prs@lynx vmware]$ du -sh *
23G C5_64
4.0G CentOS_3_9
4.7G CentOS-QA
6.7G fedora-7-i386
4.1G PCLinuxOS_2007
21G W2K_Pro
22G XP
