Hi, I don't have access to any version of VMware so I can't test this
myself, but I can ask you guys questions:

That is an antique version of OSv....

The commands

          scripts/build   # pass image=... as you want, etc.
          scripts/convert vmdk

Is supposed to build a new OSv image and convert it to VMDK format which
you can use in VMWare.

If this VMDK works, what's the benefit of converting it to a "OVA" file?
I'm really asking this out of ignorance.

Anyway, it appears that scripts/build-vm-img is the old code which creates
the image in various formats, and the part commented "Image for VMware
Workstation" probably does exactly what you're trying to do (I think this
is the code which generated the above osv-v0.24.vmw.zip). It would have
been nice if this old code could be moved into the more modern
scripts/convert.
