Installing VMware fusion to the mac

Steven Welborn · From: Ojai,CA USA

Hello. Is it neccessary (or better for any reason) to do the boot camp partition on the mac (OS x leapard) before installing VMware fusion? Thanks

Steven,

Isn't the Mac Legend the new one running BSD as the OS? What is the boot camp partition for? and what do you plan to do with VMware that is outside the realm of what VMware is designed to do? I wish I had an exact answer for you, but I am new to Mac. It's my Unix background that even allows be to comprehend a portion of your question.

No, you don't need to have Windows on a Boot Camp partition before using VMWare. I don't have it that way. I have an XP image and a Fedora image. The XP image I made by running Fusion and then running the XP install.

I think that if you do already have a boot camp partition, they advertise that you can load that into VMWare. But it's not a requirement.
