vmware cannot detect physical hard drive

[Xavier Otazu]

	Hello:

	When trying to configure a virutal machine using vmware3, I
tell it to use a physical drive, but it tells that /dev/hda is not
present.

	I have activated linproc, and a /compat/linux/dev/hda
file was created afeter installing vmware. I've also loaded aio.ko as
suggested by installation script. ACPIis also loaded because I cannot
unload it.

	What do I have to do to connect /compat/linux/dev/hda to the
physical drive?

	Thanks in advance

Xavier
