What I do? ***EDIT*** I've posted this in TWO forums and on all this forums nobody replied me. I'm feeling so bad Waiting...

Alien1959 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Double Left Click on the CD/DVD icon on the bottom right, settings should pop up, instead of the usual DarwinSnow.iso which I presume you use to boot Mac on VMWare, choose the physical drive and try again? Alternatively, use VirtualBox? not much experinece on that, plan to try in a few weeks.. I get what you mean, I have unsolved threads too, ah well. all the best!

Vinnicius Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 Boot is OK, when I put a already burned disc on the CD/DVD reader, Mac can read the content. But when I put a blank disc, Mac don't see the disk, only the CD/DVD reader.

thecrazy Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I did my DVD in VMWare Workstation, my version is 8.0.1 build 528992. You must place the drive letter, do not use automatic selection and use in mode SCSI: You must put a blank DVD once the virtual machine is started and running.
