I'm trying to get Slacko 5.4 working in VMWare 9, but it's not reading the virtual drive that is associated with it's VM... Any ideas/suggestions?

Is your virtual drive IDE or SCSI? Subject description: SCSI won't work |

VMware Player, at least, will try to make a SCSI virtual drive for your VM, but it does not work for Puppy. You should remove that drive and create a new one that is set up as IDE.

Already did that. I have it set up as IDE from the setup because SCSI drives usually have issues in virtualization anyway... I'll try to redo the VM from scratch and see what happens...

Here's what the settings for the HDD look like, along with Slacko 5.4 -NOT- seeing the HDD at all in PMount.
