   I have successfully converted my running copy of WSEB 4.52 to VMWare. I have   
   also managed to install Warp 4.52 to WMWare from scratch. Both with Boot   
   Manager. However, I haven't seen any reason to play with the original WARP 4.0   
   anymore. Also, I don't see any reason for multibooting in virtual environment.

   My main system is still running in a real hardware. I haven't had enough time   
   to test the virtualized copy. Maybe some time..
