I'm not certain about VMWare, but Fedora Core sometimes has trouble 
using _real_ disks, especially on Intel motherboards.

For some reason if, at the boot prompt (from boot media), you type:

mediacheck         <<< this will fail
linux mediacheck   <<< and then things magically work

you can install.  I don't know why this works, but empirically it does.
