Linux version to choose when installing on VMware?

BAlfson

There certainly is a paucity of information with instructions for installing on VMware.  I downloaded the XG ISO and tried to install it in VMware Player where I've played with UTM.  I tried with several different choices for the underlying OS and was unsuccessful with each.

Cheers - Bob

    Bob,

    VMWare Player runs a virtual machine.  It can't create one from an ISO.  You need to install the Sophos XG ISO into a full version of VMWare. Then, you can take that virtual machine and run it in VMWare Player.
