Hi Ricardo,
did you already notice the OSGeo Live project? I think they are working
on something similar (Virtual machines or boot DVDs with preinstalled
open-source GIS applications). I did not try it yet, but perhaps it
would be worth a look for you:

Birgit.

Sorry, just forgot to mention a very important aspect!
GISVM BASE comes already installed with:
- PostgreSQL + PostGIS + PG Admin
- Mapserver + PHP + PHP Mapscript
- Apache + Tomcat + Java JDK
Cheers,

Hi Ricardo,
That sounds really great! I was working in a VM like that, executed in
an Amazon EC2 microinstance (free tier). Now, I think I can try a kind
of "VMWare to AMI" process, using your GISVM. Maybe adding PostGIS
Raster too.
That could help:

Many thanks! I'll publish your work in my blog, and I'll tweet it.
