[OmniOS-discuss] Problem installing omniOS in vmware fusion

Heard about OmniOS from watching the videos from the Dtrace Conference,
sounded cool thought I¹d give it a try.

After selecting language et al, I get the GUI install screen after selecting
³1² to install.
I hit esc-2 and immediately the GUI crashes and I¹m back at selecting ³1² to
install.

Looks like OmniOS needs /dev/rdiskette0 and that it doesn¹t exist in vmware
fusion... from the install log:
OSError: [Errno 6] No such device or address: Œ/dev/rdiskette0¹
