changhai,
Thanks. In relation to
http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1004018
I have done as indicated and when the virtual machine enters into single-user mode (Option Command S), it gets stuck there. The keys are not active, even if I click Control Command to show the mouse pointer. But if then I click or try to type into the console, it types nothing and the mouse pointer disapears. No way to type anything in the command-text console.
I am enclosing a screen capture as "StuckAtTextCommandConsole.pdf".
I have to select "Virtual Machine - Restart" to get out of it.
Any idea to fix it? Thanks.
