VSphere-client works on a LiveCD - though it better fits into an USB-stick

Sorry - there is no howto yet. This stuff is still brandnew - I have the final version since one day now.
If you are interested - I guess in a week I'll have an addon package to this build

It is very interesting that both versions can run side by side.

not necessarily - some hosts boot faster from CD than from USB.
Sticks like this one are really nice - actually its a small 32 Gb SSD-disk that can be used via USB or eSATA

Cool stuff! I tried to PM you about the USB stick but your inbox is full. Have been using it for a couple of weeks and it rocks!

just "released" MOA 2.4.1 - the new setup is easier than ever - you no longer need any BartPE-skills.
See yourself
