  2. Summary of VMware + Bccd Step 1: Download VMware Server. Step 2: Download Bccd ISO image. Step 3: Install VMware Server. Step 4: Create a virtual machine. Step 5: Configure virtual machine to boot from Bccd ISO image. Step 6: Startup first virtual machine. Step 7: For each new virtual machine repeat steps 4 thru 6. Step 8: Now use Bccd on each virtual machine.

  3. Step 1: Download VMware Server • The VMware Server may be downloaded from the following URL: http://www.vmware.com/download/server/
