I finally managed to install an iDeneb 1.4 in VMware Worksation 6.5.2. But now when i try to boot it the VM pop's up a message like this:
"Virtual machine kernel stack fault (hardware reset)" and a lot of blah blah afterwards.
On the OSx86 Wiki i found a comment regarding this issue and the solution - in their opinion - would be to set the guest-OS Type to "Windows NT". Of course I did this and unfortunately it doesnt work. I still receive this annoying error. I also tried the other thing noticed there (which is: adding a line at the end of the .vmx file with the following content: "paevm = "TRUE"). Then i add this, i get an exception error before the VM starts loading. After a while it loads anyway but that fu**in kernel error comes back like before.
I installed iDeneb with GuestOS set to FreeBSD before. With this set it pops up the same error. I can actually do what i want i dont get this thing to boot - ALWAYS this annoying error from vmware. Im slowly becoming crazy with this!
Can you help me out with this?
my System for short if this is from interest:
C2Q Q9550 @ 3,2 GHz
Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3
8 GB Corsair XMS 2
XFX 8800 GTX
I would really appreciate any help since im stuck now!

can it be that you cannot help me also? please - i already tried it with 3 different distributions now and still it doesnt work. i also updated vmware workstation to 6.5.3 and still no effect.
i cannot install it natively. i have no pc or partition left for that. so i cannot nearly imagine that this error is completely new and happens for me only. so please: help me out!
