erm.. ubuntu thing is not small.. it's 200mb, and uncompresed to 800mb (how the **** did they do that?!).. much easier to just download the whole install cd and do it yourself.. it's easy enough if you follow the installation instruction that comes with vmware (you can create one with the trial version, and play it with vmware player..)
