Hi Jookia, I don't see how, unless I was doing a VM in a VM onto my Ubuntu Mate that is a VM. This is just running windows 10, with VmWare Player, and I have Ubuntu Mate desktop and two versions of windows as VMs too, and I wanted to try Ubuntu-server in a VM. I don't know if VmWare can run an install script, sort of like the windows answer file for a windows install. There may be such a thing for Ubuntu, but the next thing is how to run it during the VmWare install of Ubuntu-server. Thanks.
