I think that I am getting this. ~ One starts a VM machine and then the
'installation' process makes these folders, the "~/vmware" folder.
In sum, the VM runs as software within a mac environment. Then the alternative OS is installed as from/within the VM and places its files onto/within the folder on the mac-drive. The emulator intermediates or translates to/from the virtual space and the mac folders.
While these are mac folders, there are no directly usable files there. All the data in folders is usable by the OS in VM only. It is as if the data is encrypted somehow.
Yes? Or no?
