Not sure if anyone else has noticed, but VMware finally released
Fusion for public beta. It's the port to Macintel.
Only caveat so far is that Fusion wouldn't mount the OpenBSD CDs. I
think it might have a problem mounting volumes that have spaces in
the path. I downloaded cd40.iso and did an FTP install and that
worked fine (NAT for networking, choose dhcp during the install since
it doesn't have any way that I could find to configure vmnet).
Here're the dmesg's from RAMDISK_CD and GENERIC.MP on a MBP 15"
CoreDuo 2.16GHz:
can you try 4.0-current (or a recent snapshot)? it should use the new
vic(4) driver instead of pcn(4).
I added Ethernet0.virtualDev to "vmxnet" (wasn't present by default)
and this is what I got with the latest i386 snap:
vic0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 "VMware Virtual NIC" rev 0x10: apic 2
int 18 (irq 9)
vic0: VMXnet 864F, address 00:0c:29:c9:d7:96
Boots fine, but when it searches for DHCP lease I get:
vic0: no link ............. giving up
I tried to ifconfig vic0 down ; ifconfig vic0 up, but it still didn't
get a link.
I tried "e1000" instead of "vmxnet" and em0 was able to get a link
just fine.
Any other options I should try?
