Support

This guest operating system is supported on the following VMware products:

• VMware Workstation 4.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2, 4.0.5, 4.5, 4.5.1, 4.5.2

• VMware GSX Server 3.0, 3.1

General Installation Notes

Be sure to read General Guidelines for All VMware Products on page 13 as well as this

guide to installing your specific guest operating system.

The easiest method of installing FreeBSD 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 in a virtual machine is to

use the standard FreeBSD distribution CD.

Before installing the operating system, be sure that you have already created and

configured a new virtual machine.

Note: If you create your virtual machine with a virtual IDE disk, installation proceeds

as it would on a physical machine. If you create your virtual machine with a SCSI virtual

disk that is 2GB or larger, see Setting the Disk Geometry for a FreeBSD SCSI Virtual Disk

below.

Installation Steps

1. Insert the FreeBSD CD in the CD-ROM drive.

2. Power on the virtual machine to start installing FreeBSD.

3. Follow the installation steps as you would for a physical PC.

VMware Tools

Be sure to install VMware Tools in your guest operating system. For details, see the

manual for your VMware product or follow the appropriate link in the knowledge base

article at www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=340.

Known Issues

larger SCSI virtual disk, the guest operating system does not boot unless you take the

special steps described in this section.
