I don't have VMware, but I do have Virtual PC and have some experience
with this.

First, just rename the bin file to iso, no big deal.

Second, does VMware allow the specification of using a floppy image? 
Virtual PC does, so I point the floppy to the extracted bootdisk.ima and
the CD to the ISO image and it's all good.  When you save the
configuration, it'll add the db files to the bootdisk.ima file. 

When you want to burn a CD, I extract the files from the ISO, putting
them in a folder called LEAF.  I rename the original bootdisk.ima file
to bootdisk.ima.original.  Then I fire up Nero or Roxio and make a
bootable CD using my modified bootdisk.ima file for the floppy image. 

This makes configuring the system so much easier than doing it onsite
with the customer breathing over you.

Good luck,

Tony
