I'm okay with a dynamically growing disk... the problem is; it's not growing!
The disk itself is nowhere near full.
Just for giggles, I tried to check the "Pre-allocate disk space" and let it spin for a good 4 hours; I finally had to force-quit VMWare Fusion and when I re-opened the VM, it's still got the same problem. (Out of disk space) Although the .vmwarevm package got a lot bigger, the .vmdk did not grow. There is, however a .vmdk-converttmp file that's 218 GB now... it looks like Fusion couldn't finish the pre-allocate step.
Any ideas? I think I'll try the "Pre-allocate..." step again and let it run all night.
