Starting a VMware Machine Hangs At 95%

Published in

Seen on multiple machines running Fedora 10 and CentOS 5.2 with VMware Server 2.0.0 installed.

Symptoms: The Virtual Machine hangs at 95% during startup.

Rerunning VMware's configuration tool seems to resolve this issue, at least for me.

vmware-config.pl

Reason: Whenever a kernel update occurs, VMware's pre-compiled modules error out in the currently running kernel. Reconfiguring isn't always needed, but if your Virtual Machine hangs at 95% -- it's worth a try.
