I installed VMware 4.5.2 on my laptop, I was able to install FreeBSD 4.9 
fine. When I went to install DF, the RC1 disk stops at "Waiting 15 
seconds for SCSI devices to settle". So I did the FreeBSD -> DF upgrade, 
It's best to use IDE disk emulation with vmware & the BSDs. I don't know 
if SCSI disk emulation is the default in 4.5, but on 4.0, when using 
custom mode (without really customizing anything...), I usually end up 
with the IDE emulation.
