| 7 | According to your screenshot, you don't even have an sdb. All the |
| 8 | kernel sees is one hard disk: sda. If you do have an sdb, check in |
| 9 | VMWare that it's actually attached to the VM. |

| 11 | Also, are you sure the VM you downloaded is for the version of VMWare |
| 12 | you're actually using? Why not create the VM yourself instead of |
| 13 | downloading it? |
