Simplest: Setup the VM with Ubuntu 6.10; follow instructions on
OpenMoko wiki. I don't think a special script will be very useful
here since there isn't much (if anything) to do beyond what's in the
Wiki.
NB: Make sure your VM's hard drive is big enough. 8 GB isn't. 40 GB
should be;) Mine is currently at 8.09 GB (on OSX; 7.981 MB in 'df -
k') ... get it right the first time so that you don't have to deal
with creating a new virtual HD & getting the data copied, the HD
partitioned correctly, etc...

Win/XP, Vista (Ultimate, but that's M$'s deal)
pretty much any Linux flavor
hacked OSX (OSX checks for "real" hardware)

Yes, I've successfully compiled 'nano' under OE/BB on an Ubuntu 6.10
VM running in Parallels on an Intel-iMac (c2d @ 2.16 GHz). As I said
before, there really isn't much to it - just make sure the VM hard
drive is big enough ;) I guess you can do screen shots if you want
to. - MLD
