After playing around in Windows 7 on a VM, I was ready to repave my spare top and give it a whirl. None of my Windows boxes have a DVD burner, but my MacBookPro does. Here is what I did:
(I use VMWare Fusion to run Windows on my MBP.)
On the MBP:
- Copy the iso to my shared folder for my virtual machines on my MBP.
On my Windows VM:
- Map a drive to my shared folder (I already had this… I use Y:\)
- Download the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools.
- Insert a blank DVD (On my VM the host DVD burner shows up as the D:\ drive)
- Open the command prompt.
- Type:
dvdburn D: Y:\en_windows_7_beta_dvd_x86_x15-29073.iso
A few minutes later my finished DVD was ejected from the DVD drive.
