Hi, <br> I have the A2 up and running under the VMWare (4.0.1 build-528992, Win7 64bit home premium). I got the image from <br> <a href="ftp://ftp.lrz.de/transfer/BlueBottle-A2/A2_Rev-4460_serial-trace.iso" target="_blank">ftp://ftp.lrz.de/transfer/BlueBottle-A2/A2_Rev-4460_serial-trace.iso</a> <br>
<br> and it works (so far) very well.<br> <br>Regards,<br> Darek<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 2 January 2012 20:37, B. Smith-Mannschott <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:benpsm@gmail.com">benpsm@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I've tried to download the CD image at <a href="http://bluebottle.ethz.ch" target="_blank">bluebottle.ethz.ch</a> to no avail:<br>

<br>
Both muddle along at a few bytes a second, before finally cutting off after some minutes.<br>
<br>
I've also tried this (from <a href="http://www.ocp.inf.ethz.ch/wiki/OCP/Downloads" target="_blank">http://www.ocp.inf.ethz.ch/wiki/OCP/Downloads</a>):<br>

<br>
With the same results.<br>
<br>
I've tried the A2 VMWare image available here:<br>

<br>
But this doesn't do much more than show me a pleasant blue screen after VMWare has informed me that the VM wants to monitor all network traffic.<br>
<br>
Can someone on this list give me a hand getting A2 (or Native Oberon) up and running under VMWare?<br>
