You can find it at the L4Ka site

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I know the OK-Labs uses
qemu but it would be great if I could create VMware runable VMs with the
workstation product.<br>
In any event I have a core mash after start-up in my VM..<br>

Someone a while back stated that this was due to the VT bit not being set.<br>
But I do have VT enabled on my Dell 620 laptop (Running XP SP2) and I'm still
getting this.<br>
It runs just fine under qemu. <br>
If anyone knows a soultion they can e-mail me privately as other's may not
care,<br>
If I solve it, I will post to the list so that the solution will get into the
archives.<br>
