Re: installing debian with vmware work station speech stops part way threw the installation
I don't think that would be a problem with the audio.
It could be hanging up though.
In VmWare, is the other drive identified in the devices?

Hi, I am wondering if it is the fact that I am storing the virtual
machine on another internal drive then the one that windows is installed
on to keep things like documents and other personal files off of the
operating system drive? Should this matter or have you had this issue
when installing on the operating system drive? Nick Gawronski
