Or, if you prefer, you can add in a boot delay:

Code:

bios.bootDelay = "5000"

Yeah I found that a min ago, very handy. Lets see if I can actually get this to work

Then it keeps rebooting

Me too. Less Decathlon for me now.

As for that problem, looks pretty nasty.

What are your VM settings - particularly RAM and CPU?

Burnsy2023 · 06-04-2008, 21:11

512 RAM one CPU

Burnsy2023 · 06-04-2008, 21:11

I don't suppose someone has a VMware image I can just download an use?

Mark · 06-04-2008, 21:11

Try two CPUs.

And you are running it on an Intel Core-based system, aren't you?

Burnsy2023 · 06-04-2008, 21:17

I can't see how to change it, the webui doesn't allow me to select two

Feek · 06-04-2008, 21:27

No, don't use two CPUs, it fails. What image are you using and what version OS X?

Mark · 06-04-2008, 21:29

Ah, OK. I thought it needed that, but obviously I had it the wrong way around. I'll leave it to you Feek as I've not tried this.
