VMWare & Core 2

[Fred Whipple]

IIRC, Fedora Core 2 uses "Code Morphing" or something like that in the
kernel, and this causes some incompatibilities and slowness.  This also
causes it to simply not work at all under Virtual PC.  Check the MS Web site
(I know, I know), there's a Virtual PC discussion forum thread that
addresses the issue and a recompiled kernel that doesn't use the offending
code that apparently allows you to run FC2 under Virtual PC, and runs FC2 at
normal speed under VMWare.

HTH,

Is anyone using Fedora Core 2 under VMWare v4.5? It's slow as molasses and I
cannot get X to run. I never had a problem with Red Hat (up through 9) or
Core 1.
