As tempting as it would be to just forget the fiasco, I'm still curious enough to poke around the broken bits (which I've kept) and do some forensics. I find it troubling that we can grab a gigabyte download (presumably with integrity checks) and not discover that it's corrupted until install time. Somewhere in the chain, some tool isn't doing its job, and I'd like to find out which one.
Soon as I get a round tuit...

Noob guide here!
Admins: Shouldn't this one be moved to the "Developer" thread?

OK, I downloaded the torrent, used 7z to create my disks and configs, all was good. I downloaded vmwareplayer and it just reboots into a loop.
This is displayed over and over until it reboots from kernel panic. I tried acip=off and noacpi and lba=off, it seems to be having trouble booting. Anyone else have any problems, or overcome this. I tried BIOS settings, everything I could think of. I eventually downloaded vmware workstation tried that, but it was the same problem.
I get to grub, but then it dies with this no matter what I try
Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP 00000060 c0100295 00000294

This is a kernel issue with Ubuntu 6.10 running on M, C3 and some other processors. I have a laptop with an M here. If I have some time this weekend I will try do a custom kernel as a boot option and hopefully that fixes it.
"This is because the 2.6.17-10-server kernel is compiled with HIGHMEM64G support, which requires PAE, but the Via C3 processor used on most Epias does not support PAE. You will have to use a kernel without HIGHMEM64G support (HIGHMEM4G will work, as will NOHIGHMEM).
The same problem occurs on certain Pentium M CPUs. Most other CPUs since Pentium Pro support PAE."

Thanks, let me know
I have tried many kernel options, can't get it figured out though!

BTW I made this with the latest version of VMWare which has an option for Ubuntu (in addition to Linux, Win2k, etc). Your error was probably due to not being on the bleeding edge

OK, so if I want this to work, I need it on a P4 or I need to download it again after you update the package? Or do you have some plan like boot with Knoppix and replace the kernel?
I am cornfused!

Thanks, konfoo. This is indeed awesome. I can now investigate developing without much risk.
I can't seem to get the network connected from the Ubuntu through the VM Player. I must be missing something here. Ubuntu simply does not see the network, even though I'm pretty sure I have enabled it in the VM PLayer.
Anybody have words of wisdom? I'd like to connect up the emulator to the network through the emulator on my PC.......
