I am trying to install ubuntu 7.0 on a virtual machine through VMware
fusion on my Mac Book pro.
It is hard for me to know where to start as I have a few problems
with this and am nut entirely sure how they are linked or if they are
linked.
First of all, I cannot get the capslock to work at all, neither for
orca commands, nor for system commands. I have found that fn + m
enables me to do insert on my apple laptop keyboard, but that is one
more key that I have to press each time I give an orca command.
Then I am trying to install ubuntu. Quite an operating system that
it can just run from the Cd or in this case, the iso disk image.
When I set up the virtual machine, I designated a max of 20 gb of
storage for it to use on my computer harddrive. When i was going
through the installation of ubuntu, everything went well until I got
to the place where it wanted to make another partician. I don't
think I should do that because it may erase everything on my
harddrive and it does not seem liek i should since I already
desinated the virtual machine to use 20 gb of space.
I have asked the orca mailing list, the mac visionaries discuss
digest list, neither of which have been able to answer my inquiry. I
also tried to ask VMWare but I could not figure out how to access
their support. I found a support form with google, and when I filled
it out, I got an email telling me to go to another link for support.
I clicked on the link that it gave me and it took me to a webpage
with, so far as I could find, no place to aske for support without
typing a username and password.
Would really appreciate help on this as I have been struggling with
it since last night and am showing no signs of discernible progress.
