And how do you get things into the disk image? Last I checked, this
required either complex hackery to mount it as a block device, or
burning a CD-ROM of the data.
I should point out that I don't use VMWare either -- maybe if I had
enough of a need for this I'd have time to spare to "add everything I
like", but as it is I'm just waiting for the next bochs release (traffic
on the mailing list indicates that an ethernet device exists in CVS)
