I've never seen any documentation for that. Since Linux support with Converter is experimental there is not any documentation that I've found for it. There are a couple posts here of other users who have tried cloning Linux servers with Converter...

Hello all,

I've written a little guide on cloning Linux Box with vmware converter.

Feddback are welcome.
