I'm trying to install onto a second partition on my Gateway 600YG2 laptop using a JaS patched 8F1111 dvd image, but the installer is EXTREMELY slow and it just freezes at "Preparing Installation" screen. I'm using VMWare Server with 512MB of guest mem, physical access partition 2, and guest os Solaris 10 and Darwin. I've also added "paevm=true". Any suggestion to getting around this problem?

Nvm. The problem turns out to be VMware Server because I switched back to Workstation 5.5 and it works fine now, although the installation is still taking hours. Lesson of the day: DONT USE VMWARE SERVER YET.
