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


hmmm, can you try it with GENERIC (without MP)?

It didn't make a difference. I tried commenting out the virtualDev setting to see which one it would detect if no device type was specified in the .vmx, and it went back to pcn.

Jason, what does your .vmx look like?

Oddly, I also found a statement: deploymentPlatform = "windows", which I found rather odd since I choose other/other for the OS and type. I comment that out, but it didn't change anything.
