Get Ready to Create a New Virtual Machine With Fusion
What You Will Need:
VMware’s Fusion v1.1 or later. Available hard drive space. The amount of free hard drive space you’ll need depends on the OS you plan to install. Some Linux installations will work fine with just 8 GB of available space, while Windows Vista works better with at least 20 GB of space. An Intel-based Mac. Any Intel-based Mac, which includes most models from January 2006 on. About an hour of free time. The amount of time the installation will take depends on the OS you plan to install, and the type of Mac you’re installing it on.
