Hi Alon,

Actually I meant that I have used it before in vmware desktop and it 
worked fine. So I was wondering when it got broken and how did exactly 
you try it out to reproduce the issue here. Because grub 2 "has to" work 
in vmware too :)

Eg. tell that you ran this and this. And then did that.

I think lspci might also need some device database. So if it cannot load 
it may fail. But lets first tackle this vmware problem :)

Thanks,
