What version of VMWARE should be used, please!
I have tried the Ubuntu image with VMware 6.5 and I certainly can't get it going. It boots without a NAS drive attached but fails to boot when added to the VMware configuration. Log indicates timing out waiting for the drive command to respond, which continually repeats.
The main issue is when adding a physical SATA (raw)drive WMware insists on adding it as an IDE.
I have attempted to manually edit the VMDK and VMX and change te drive from IDE to SCSI as suggested in VMware support forums but still no go.
So if the version of VMware that was used can be stated that may help.
