Compiling for VMware is somewhat like compiling for Windows - there is a separate, standalone makefile one uses. In this case, it is src/Makefile.uw. So, to build the bits, cd to src/ and make -f Makefile.uw. At present, the makefile is setup to use a number of the "none" files - in particular netcpu_none.c. When/if we enable the "omni" tests we'll perhaps see the addition of a number of other "none" files as well. Also, seems the way things are "run" under VMware is enough different that the scripts, should you chose to use them, will need to be modified. The initial set of patches make some arbitrary changes that need to be re-worked with some "To run this under VMware uncomment this line" or somesuch.
