I just tried it but unfortunately it didn't help. Same error message. As I stared at the error it became clear that Feb 23 16:00:43: VIDE: (0x170) OUTB Cmd of 0xA1 for non-existent drive 1 Feb 23 16:00:45: VIDE: (0x1F0) OUTB Cmd of 0xA1 for non-existent drive 1 Feb 23 16:00:46: F(173):311 0x2fff 2 Feb 23 16:00:46: VIDE: (0x170) ATAPI Unexpected IN len 2 w/o active Cmd the hex number in parenthesis is the IDE IO locations. My kernel thinks there is ata1 on apapci0 at 0x170. So why isn't vmware2 happy with it? Is it worth attempting to report this problem to vmware?
