>Organization:
N/A
>Environment:

	vmware2-2.0.1.570, linprocfs-0.1, linux_base-6.1

>Description:

	My home system, built last on June 13, works properly, but
	my work system (rebuilt on July 14) has a problem with VMware.
	I've been told by another user that this problem began for
	him when he rebuilt his OS and kernel in mid-June. VMware
	gives an "Abort Trap" message with vmmon receiving a
	SEGV when powering on the virtual machine configured for
	access to a raw partition.  Access to a virtual disk in
	the filesystem still works properly.  This appears to
	likely be a kernel issue.

>How-To-Repeat:

	With current kernel, configure VMware to book from a physical
	disk partition and power on.  I will gladly provide any
	additional information if given instructions on how to get
	the data.

>Fix:

	None known.
