+# This config is an example usage of ktest.pl with a vmware guest
+#
+# VMware Setup:
+# -------------
+# - Edit the Virtual Machine ("Edit virtual machine settings")
+# - Add a Serial Port
+#   - You almost certainly want it set "Connect at power on"
+#   - Select "Use socket (named pipe)"
+#   - Select a name that you'll recognize, like 'ktestserialpipe'
+#   - From: Server
+#   - To: A Virtual Machine
+#   - Save
+# - Make sure you note the name, it will be in the base directory of the
+#   virtual machine (where the "disks" are stored.  The default
+#   is /var/lib/vmware/<virtual machine name>/<the name you entered above>
+#
+# - Make note of the path to the VM
+# </End VMware setup>
+#
+# The guest is called 'Guest' and this would be something that
+# could be run on the host to test a virtual machine target.

+# Noting this needs to be the name of the kmx file, and usually, the

+# Please ommit the .kmx extension

+# options, for the options set in the OVERRIDE section.
