New kernel for VMWare

[Jon Vinther]

I recently installed FOG 0.32 on a Ubuntu 12.04 server.
However I now need to migrate the server to a VMWare virtual machine instead.

I tried using the [FONT=Calibri]VMware VCenter Converter Standalone Converter, but got a message saying that the linux kernel version was to old.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]I therefore wanted to try to update to linux kernel 3.5.3, and give it another go, but I don’t have any experience making custom kernels.[/FONT]
Does anyone have a newer FOG kernel that I could use?

Or maybe a different way entirely to migrate my server to VMWare.
I could install it all over again, but making all the small tweaks, and moving the SQL server, seems like a real hassle.

Thanks for your assistance.

Could you not upgrade the kernel on the linux box. The kernel the OS uses and the kernel fog uses look to two different things. But I could be wrong. I upgraded to a newer kernel on my VM setup and suffered no ill effects but I built mine in VMware from the start. I’ll look for the walk through I used to upgrade my kernel and post it after I get back from my family gathering.
