I have a limited hardware platform (64 bit but only 4gb ram (maybe 8gb if I can find upgrade on ebay), storage is split between a 128gb SSD and a 500gb HD.
I will use for testing out software on other OS's in VMware
I want the base OS host to be a super thin Linux Distro where I will do very little except run VMware (I have no choice over this as I will be provided pre-built Win builds)
I will also be using to compare different Linux Distro's in VMware.
For this post all I am after is recommendations on the base OS that will host VMware, I want this is to be super low on overhead so that VMware testing runs as fast as possible.
Thanks in advance.
