+Convention for naming VMware images.
+This is not a necessity!
+
+- First part should be the VMware-OS name (e.g. winxppro).
+- When this is not desired there is a possibility to specify this in the ostype file (e.g. winxppro windowsxppro) (s. ostype).
+- When none of the above is used, VMware-OS name is 'other'. This seems not to be a big issue, but VMware says that it can cause Problems. When installing etc... a wrong ostype could cause unpredictable results.
+- Use lower case letters, there is no guarantee that runvmware work /w upper case letters.
+- Second part should be separated by'-'. There is no need for a second part.
+- Specia characters are '-', '_', '.'
+- Examples:
+
+winxppro.vmdk
+winxppro-office.vmdk
+winxppro-work.vmdk
+
