I just upgraded VMware to 5.0.0, and upgraded my CentOS-4 guest
machine to match, including changing the guest OS type setting from
RHEL3 to RHEL4.
I now get this loop quite reliably on every attempt to shut down the
guest OS *IF* I have the virtual CDROM device connected to the host
CDROM but there is no disk in the host CDROM drive. If I disconnect
the virtual CDROM, then the system shuts down cleanly.
