This build document outlines creating a Virtual Appliance using VMWare Workstation 6.5 and Ubuntu Jeos (Just Enough Operating System) 8.04.3 operating system .
This document is organized into four sections:
Creating A Virtual Machine in Workstation
Installing Jeos inside VMWare Workstation
Installing VMWare Tools in Jeos
Converting VM to OVF template
Creating Virtual Machine
The first step is to open Workstation and create a new virtual machine.
Select Linux and Ubuntu
For disk size, select 4 GB (since this is an appliance we will make everything small)
Continue through the wizard. At the end click Customize Hardware
Set memory to 256 MB
Click on CD/DVD and mount the jeos-8.04.3-jeos-i386.iso file
Click on Network Adapter and set it to Bridged
Press OK and a new empty virtual machine will be created. As soon as VMWare is ready press the green play button to power on the virtual machine.
