OK, I witnessed this on a laptop here at a conference I'm at yesterday.
I think the problem is that I setup and built everything on a Xeon-based
intel mac, and somehow the minimal linux install (which is part of the
virtual machine) made some assumptions about the processor that aren't
valid for certain other processors.    Just out of curiosity, if you run
this VMware machine on your laptop, does it work?

If so, I could reconfigure that one to include SAGE, and that would
work for everybody.  Many thanks for testing this out.
