bluebrother:
May I suggest simply using the vmware image? It's a standard linux running, and that works similarly to cygwin. It comes preconfigured, so you can just go and start.
mschneider:
Hmm, does this actually install Linux on the drive? It looks a lot more simple than cygwin but i just need some clarification.
bluebrother:
have you considered searching the web and wiki before a bit? Vmware emulates a complete PC, and for that it also simulates the hard disks. From the view of your host system (i.e. windows) it's just everything contained in a big file. It does not install Linux because it is already installed...

Great, i'm downloading/installing now! ;D
mschneider:
Ok i've installed the image and the player on my dev computer that does not have internet. I've used cygwin on a computer that does have internet to get the daily build. I have copied the rockbox folder over to my dev computer but cant figure out how to get to it in vmware. Where should i put the folder?
