I wonder why vmware would even need to support opensuse in so specific a
fashion. It is a virtual environment that presents some virtual devices.
Aside from the kernel, what else would vmware need that is
SUSE-specific? At least to do the basic install. I cnn understand later
installation of vmware code into the installed OS. But not for the basic
OS install.

But then you need a 10.3 install into which you can install more virtual
10.3's, right? And you need to run them on 10.3.
