Hi All,
I am trying to install GSX server 3.1 on an opteron box running redhat 3.0 AS.
The vmmon and vmnet modules got rebuilt for this kernel, and the installation process reported that the modules load perfectly, when I check the status of vmware, the modules are reported to be not loaded.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Bsavaraj
