Glad to know this is a know bug. I personally think it would be pretty nice if we can fix this bug soon since the students are being frustrated by this... And, in the Build Appliance (self-hosted-image) work, we want to enable the vmware guest's VMware Tools. This also requires the ability to build kernel module in the target.
