OK, I ran the upgrade again with the latest VMWare Workstation
available. No cheese down that hole :(<br>
<br>
The upgrade runs flawlessly after I specifically select the Buslogic
controller. When I reboot it complains that it can not find the disks
and then kernel panics. Is there some change I need to make to some
configuration to make FC5 recognize the Buslogic controller and thus
see my virtual disks?<br>

style="font-size: 12pt;">My Google foo is either not working or it is
simply not there. When FC5
came out I tried to upgrade my VM from FC4 to FC5. I was able to get
around the
"Disk not found" error during the install by specifying the Buslogic
SCSI controller during the install. It appeared to do the install but
failed to
boot because it was not able to find the disk after the upgrade.<br>
<br>
I was only able to find one site that had any information at all on how
to
accomplish this successfully and it spoke of recompiling kernels
(something I
really do not want to do). It also did not give me a lot of warm
fuzzies that
it would work when I was done. <br>
<br>
Has anybody done this successfully? If so how?<br>
