POST-EDIT: one disadvantage... VMware images with free older VMware player does not support USB plugging. Only drives connected to motherboard can be mounted. Newer (warez) versions do not have this problem... :angel:
Download links: please visit original page!
I'll copy paste the URIs for the most resent versions (x86/x64) I thought of interest.
All installations have their own root password! Passwords are given on the site!
Introduction
VMware lets you run another computer in your computer. Try out another operating system, test a different platform, preview a new distro. Hopefully this page of VMware images, or "Virtual Appliances" is useful.
Compatibility
These images will work in:
VMware Player free!
VMware Server free!
VMware Workstation 5.5+
VMware ESX 3+/VMware Virtual Infrastructure/vSphere
How to use these images
Get the free VMware Player (or VMware Server, ESX 3, or VMware Workstation)
Download the image you want to use (see the list below)
Unzip it
Load the image in VMware
How these images were created
All of these VMware images are straight installs of the distribution, with all the default options chosen. This means you will be using and American English with an American keyboard.
No tinkering was done - this means that no security updates have been applied - so be careful! See the 1 minute HOWTO guide for instructions on changing the language and keyboard, and on applying security updates.
There is also a step-by-step walkthrough on how to create your own VMware image using VMware Workstation.
Download the images
The torrent downloads here are much, much faster than your net connection. If you want the image quickly, definitely use the torrent.
Get a BitTorrent downloader, like uTorrent (free!)
Click one of the fast torrent download! links below
There will be a short pause before, and then your high speed download will begin
