 I tried this, but I faced another error dialog:
 
         Oct 17 21:55:15: Msg_Post Error: msg.ethernet.configFailed
         Could not get address for /dev/vmnet1: Invalid argument
         Failed to configure ethernet0.
 
 I looked at ktrace log, finding the following point:
 
  44270 vmware   CALL  open(0x826e878,0x802,0xbfbff1ec)
  44270 vmware   NAMI  "/compat/linux/dev/vmnet1"
  44270 vmware   NAMI  "/compat/linux"
  44270 vmware   NAMI  "/compat/linux/dev/vmnet1"
  44270 vmware   RET   open 19/0x13
  44270 vmware   CALL  ioctl(0x13,0x8915 ,0x8330f9c)
  44270 vmware   RET   ioctl -1 errno -22 Unknown error: -22
  44270 vmware   CALL  close(0x13)
  44270 vmware   RET   close 0
  44270 vmware   CALL  fchdir(0)
  44270 vmware   RET   fchdir 1003323315/0x3bcd7fb3
  44270 vmware   CALL  old.killpg(0x3,0xbfbfed48,0x2)
  44270 vmware   GIO   fd 3 wrote 146 bytes
        "Oct 17 21:55:15: Msg_Post Error: msg.ethernet.configFailed
         Could not get address for /dev/vmnet1: Invalid argument
         Failed to configure ethernet0.
        "
 
 I think it is due to ioctl() failure. Can you fix on that?
 I've found /dev/net/vmnet1 and linked to this, but failed also.
