is there any tools available that i can run on a desktop to create a complete copy of it that i can use to run in VMWare Workstation 6.5?
Also I did use the import feature to do it to one desktop but because if goes over the network it took approx 7 hours to complete.
As an update to this, Workstation 8 comes with a P to V converter
Alternatively you can image the disk, use the Qemu tool qemu-img to convert it to a VMware disk file:
qemu-img convert -f raw raw.img -O vmdk new.vmdk
And that's basically it.
