This can be worked around = by adding rtc.diffFromUTC =3D 0 to the .vmx file. Source: https://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/techpaper/Timekeeping-In-VirtualMachines.p= df, page 10. There does not appear to be a lot of other important data in the EFI NVRAM = on VMware. In cases where the automatically selected hard disk boot option is = the right one, deleting the .nvram file may be a usable workaround. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
