Here is my environment:
Base machine is a FEDORA 18 - 12Gb machine
Guest 1 - Redhat ES6.4
Guest 2 - Windows 2008 R2
I can start either guest fine, assume guest 1 starts and runs...
Then, I start the second guest 2, and after some time, Guest 1 has crashed.
Looking in Fedora message log, I find a segmentation fault and lost of error messages related to VMWare workstation....
btw - it doesn't matter which guest I start and run first.
