For the record, this can also happen in other situations with VMWare. For instance, I have seen that happen with a Suse 9.0 guest on VMWare Server that is running on Win2k3. I was trying clocksource=pit because the clock was jumping ahead of time like nothing. I figured that it is actually a problem with the Suse kernel not liking that specific option (it didn't hang with other clock options). I fixed the time problem by binding the virtual machine to one CPU core. I didn't even have to shut off the power saving features of the CPU.
