Yuandan, I had the same problem. For some reason some of the initscript soft links weren't installed. Check to see if you have them all: # cd /etc/rc0.d (also rc1.d ... rc6.d) # ls -l *vm* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Mar 20 03:28 K08vmware -> /etc/rc.d/init.d/vmware You should have K08vmware links in all rcX.d subdirectories except rc5.d where you should have a link named S90vmware.
