I tried again using the SoaS strawberry release today, but it did do not work either

'''I tried again using the SoaS strawberry release today, but it did do not work either, see below'''

# if you have not downloaded a SoaS iso image yet, start doing it now. It's big.
 +
#* http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/releases/soas-strawberry.iso
 +
# In VMware, create a new VM.
 +
# click "Continue without a disk"
 +
# select "Create a custom virtual machine", continue
 +
# Choose Operating System '''Linux''' and Version '''Other 2.6.x kernel''', continue
 +
# click "Customize Settings"
 +
# type a name for your virtual machine (e.g., '''SoaS Strawberry'''), save
 +
# in "Hard Disks", change disk size to '''2 GB''', click "Apply", go back by clicking "Show All"
 +
# in "CDs & DVDs" choose "Use disk image" and select the '''soas-strawberry.iso''' you downloaded
 +
# you can close the Settings window
 +
# select your new VM and start it
 +
# after quite a while the Sugar start screen appears. But we're going to use the Linux console.
 +
# Hold down '''ctrl'''+'''alt'''+'''F2''' keys (on a MacBook '''Fn''', too), this switches to a text screen
 +
# log in as '''root''' (no password required)
 +
# '''init 3''' (this stops Sugar for now to free up some memory)
 +
# '''yum install anaconda''' (this installs the "liveinst" tool)
 +
# '''liveinst'''
 +
#* this is a graphical tool for installing the iso cd to a harddrive
 +
#* we use it to copy SoaS from the iso image to the virtual disk
 +
#* follow the instructions, re-initializing the drive "sda", partitioned as 256 MB swap and the rest ext3 mounted to '/'
 +
'''and then the liveinst app just freezes''' :( so no luck again
