Druid Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Ok, here's what I was wondering, how would I go about making a .img/.dmg from a vmware install, just mainly wanna be able to maybe make it so I can dd the 20gb vmware install to a hdd, or any other possible way to write the vmware install to a hdd and have it boot, I was gonna take the dvd.iso to a friends house to burn, but the method I was gonna transport it isnt gonna work, and the only option is takin my hdd over there and hookin it up on his box so I can burn the .iso, since dont happen to have a dvd burner. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlwiz79 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 this file is named *.vmdk.vmdk change it to .img this should work then dd the .img over to the partition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
