I am having some space constraints so hows this for a solution.
On an existing desktop (AMD athlon XP, 256 MB) running FC3, can I also install FreeBSD using VMWare and run both simultaneously? FC3 is needed as the routine desktop and FreeBSD for testing. The usage of freeBSD OS will be via ssh so dont care about the gui.
Has this worked for anyone? RAM is not a problem, if needed can surely add more. comments, tips, advice, warnings... all solicited. -abhi

Make sure you have atleast a gig of RAM. If you will be running two OSes simultaneously then your CPU will be strained quite a lot. What is the rating on the CPU? It should be ATLEAST 2800+ BTW the FC3 kernel has some bug which slows down the system to a crawl when you have 1G of RAM.
