Creating Virtual Machine 69
7 On the Select an image file screen you should determine the path where the virtual disk
image should be stored, and the name of the disk.
The wizard prompts you to store the new hard disk image under the default path that is
specified on the
Common tab (page 90) in the Preferences window, in a separate folder.
Files of each virtual machine are automatically stored in separate folders, that are named in
the following format <guest OS>.<number of the machine of the same
version - 1>.
For instance, the first Windows 2000 virtual machine is proposed to store in the
\win2000\ folder. For the second Windows 2000 VM \win2000.1\ folder is offered,
and so on.
If you don't like the default name or path you may browse for the right folder and name, as
well as make corrections directly in the field.
After you click
Next the wizard checks if the specified folder exists, if not, a permission for
creation is asked: "Directory <name> does not exists. Do you want it
to be created automatically?" Click
Yes.
