I finally managed to work through the installs for three SuSE boxes on my Virtual PC. VPC used to be better because you could create a new machine (new MAC address) but use an existing machine's hard drive info (i.e. the OS would already be installed)... but hasn't seem to work since Microsoft took the product over from Connectix. So... three separate installs... but I'm almost done now.

Now I will have a LAN of machines to use as a test bed, six in total - three SuSE 9.1 boxes, one windows, one Trustix Linux, and one FreeBSD 5.3 - all virtual.
