[OmniOS-discuss] Installing on VMware Workstation

I've been regularly using OmniOS on ESXi since r151006 without issue.   I'm
stuck trying to install on VMware Workstation 10 on Windows 7 64bit.

At the "Welcome to OmniOS" screen it dies after pressing F2 and returns to
installation menu every time.

I've tried telling VMware it's Solaris 11/64, Solaris 10/64, Generic 64.
Tried different SCSI adapters, SATA, etc.  Nothing changes.   I've tried
r151008t, r151012, bloody.  All the same.

Solaris 11.2 installs, OpenIndiana 151a8 installs.

Any one know the trick to get OmniOS on VMware Workstation?
