Oh, and you might even be able to use the vmware player, as those already are vmware images.
Cheers for that - I will give virtualbox a go, downloading now :-)

Is it a valid testing procedure though as it is only a VM, sorry for any ignorance, but I thought Id read somewhere that the SDK was quite limited in what it could do?
If I can get it up and running, if there is anything in particular that wants testing then let me know..

Quote "Virtual images have reduced capabilities and potential. You won't get everything from the SDK" - MohammadAG

I haven't managed to get Maemo SDK Virtual Image emulator to connect to the Internet yet but will find out.

Update:
I followed this guide from MohammadAG and was able to get Internet working - Howto: Get linux and the Maemo SDK w/ emulator running!
Slightly more tricky.

You have to copy or link /etc/resolv.conf to /scratchbox/etc/resolv.conf

Do that by doing typing in the following command in Terminal:

Code:
sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf /scratchbox/etc/resolv.conf
