- Thread-topic: [LUG] VM's from disk image
yes - grab the vmware convertor to do a p2v migration: boot once into win 7 install
the tool and export the image it creates to an external drive. You can then use
other tools to convert the vmware image to other formats.
Or swap in clean hard drive and put the win 7 drive in a usb caddy for later and
run it natively, if and when you need to.
