Thanks, I can add that one to the list.
So far I know of the following distro's that can be installed from a single
iso image - all except Fedora I have installed under VMware Server.  I'm
sure there are others out there that would also apply.

Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu
OpenSUSE (internet installation)
Fedora
Mandriva One
Freespire
Vector Linux
DreamLInux

Some distro's either have multiple CD iso's or a single dvd iso, and to date
I have avoided trying to install those via VMware server.  I am not sure if
VMware server can handle a DVD iso or not, and I have not been willing to
take the time to download something that big in order to find out!  I'm
thinking if VMware server can't handle the iso image, the image could be
burned to a DVD, and then VMWS would still be able to boot it via the DVD
drive.
