IMHO no, there are no such gotchas, other than you may have to deal with the default RHEL kernel out-of-memory process killer. If you are hoping to configure VMware Server to use close to all of your physical memory, you'll have to deal with it. Alternately if you really want a clean, and also free approach, leave the Linux box alone and use stand-alone ESX 3i on a separate host. Better VM, and better Linux left untouched ;) katsu On Wed, Dec 24, 2008 at 10:39 AM, mark <m.roth2006@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Ok, too many jobs want it, so I am going to put it on my system.
