So there are two different sets of instructions for doing this. one of them has you download the xubntos installation image and install that manually into a vmware server. The other allows you to downlaod the precongifured vmware image and run it using vmware player.
It looks like you may have somehow mixed up the two and downloaded the xubuntos installation image and tried running that in vmware player. Here are instructions for vmware server http://docs.tinyos.net/index.php/Installing_a_XubunTOS_Virtual_Machine_on_VMWare_Server Here they are for vmware player http://docs.tinyos.net/index.php/Running_a_XubunTOS_Virtual_Machine_Image_in_VMware_Player Only do one or the other, not both...
