I think you're in kernel-land when you get those errors, and your kernel is built to use an initrd which it doesn't find (because you don't give it on the command line). I could be mistaken but that's what I see there. Is there an initrd image in the root of the boot partition (next to the kernel)? Try specifying that on the command line. Alternatively, check that your kernel is configured correctly for the chipset that the vmware is emulating - it may just be missing the vmware "hardware" and falling back to the non-existent initrd for more drivers. You may need to compile another kernel to proceed, or build an initrd with the missing drivers. (unfortunately I don't do vmware so I don't know what it needs) -- [email protected] mailing list
