Dual Boot - Guest OS: Windows 7, Linux host (openSUSE)

Is anyone out there using VMware Player, or Machine, on a Linux host, running an existing Windows 7 partition as the guest OS?

 

 

I used to have this running in Ubuntu, running an existing Windows XP partition as the guest OS. I did this by creating a copy of my Win XP hardware profile, and then booting the copied profile in Player - which I believe kept my Windows partition/boot unharmed. Unfortunately, Windows 7 no longer supports said "hardware profiles".

 

 

Is there anyone out there doing what I want to do? If so, could you please impart some wisdom on me?

 

 

Thanks, in advance.
