Description

Booting Haiku (tested with r1alpha4's Anyboot image and nightly .iso and Anyboot images) in VMWare Workstation 11.1.0 causes a Page Fault Exception and welcomes you to Boot Loader Death Land:

Host system is a Core i7 running Windows 7 64-bit, with hardware virtualization enabled. Haiku images are the recommended 32-bit editions. Let me know what other details are useful and I'll do my best to provide them.

This might be a breakthrough for us, as we've been getting some BLDLs now and then but it's always on obscure hardware and so it's hard for us to replicate it.

What hardware did you give the guest OS? RAM? HDD space? etc. Better yet, can you upload a VMware configuration file?

How many CPUs do you have enabled in VM settings? #11470 might be related.

Yup, looks like #11470 is the culprit; switched it to 1 CPU/2 cores and it boots just peachy. :-)
