Install Ubuntu Server in VMWare Server Part 1

This series of three videos shows how to install Ubuntu Linux Server in VMWare Server, a free application for Windows (XP or Vista) that will allow you to run a full Linux operating system in a window on your desktop. These techniques are demonstrated on Windows but also generally apply to the VMWare Fusion for the Mac. Why do it? To experiment, to learn, and for instructional purposes. The video is divided into three sections due to length limitations; view all for the complete instructions. Ubuntu Linux Server version 8.04 is a free download at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download. Total running time is about 27 minutes. To install Ubuntu Desktop, see the companion series Install Ubuntu Desktop in VMWare Server.

@Ramzz2936 vmware player allows you to run a preconfigured virtual machine, but I don't believe it allows you to install an operating system.

You need broadband. I believe the full ISO is around 500-600 mb

[brucefulton]

You have to run the virtual machines in bridged mode if you want other machines to see them.
