I'd like to try the option With VMWare Player, you just need a "virtual disk" which is a file that contains a (potentially bootable) filesystem. Unfortunately, with VMWare Player, you need to install the player on the host machine in order to get it to work. You might look into other virtualization and/or emulation options like Bochs to see if you can get something working that does not require drivers to be installed on the host before launching the guest. If, as Todd reports, the JVM can be installed to a USB stick, Id just go with that: pick a port that's unlikely to be used by the host machine (like 80801) and use that for your setup. Avoid using anything other than Tomcat and I think you can get Tomcat to auto-adjust the port number by finding the next-highest available port if the one you specify if already taken: your demo-launch procedure should take care to detect the port number chosen, and configure itself accordingly. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkuiXAoACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBORgCgsM5XwhFRVB0zGDLn3MW0usFD ktsAn0l0hNgO1oPuCxAm9kq5i61DmHJl =TJL7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
