VMWare Server 1.08 on Etch-n-Half

Well, my main server (running Ubuntu 8.04LTS) was giving me grief so I switched back to Debian. And I ran across this blog helped out a lot.

I always do a minimal net install and then select nothing with tasksel, so after going into dselect, doing an update, then installing all new packages that showed up, then I installed the following.

build-essential
linux-headers-`uname -r`
libx11-6
libxtst6
libxt6
libxrender1
libxi6
libdb3
psmisc
