Features

This is a standard install of ubuntu 6.10 server, in a 63MB package.

Some steps were taken to reduce the archive size down to a minimum:
- Some temporary data has been removed from /var (namely apt cache, installer logs, etc).
- The filesystems have been created as ext2 and ext3 journal is created at first boot.
- The partition was also cloned to a new .vmdk as a part of the shrink process.
- The archive is in 7-Zip format (GPL - search you package manager or grab it from http://www.7-zip.org).

The VMware tools were also installed.

AUTOMATED SETUP
===============

On first login, a small configure script will automaticly:

*) Recreate the ext3 journal filesystem and update fstab.
