dumbmick58 2019-09-26 09:49 reporter ~0035230	I confirm 0016457. Using Workstation Player 15.5.0 build-14665864 and CentOS-8-x86_64-1905-dvd1.iso. Tom

gz 2019-09-27 14:22 reporter ~0035255	Workaround: 1. create a VM without OS 2. start VM 3. change VM settings to read from CentOS 8 ISO image 4. restart VM

dumbmick58 2019-09-27 14:52 reporter ~0035256	W/A works great, thanks. Minor nit, WP 15.5 does not allow setting the VM "type" to Centos8, using 7. Hopefully that's just a label thing and it won't affect func of anything 8-based in the image. Tom

dumbmick58 2019-09-27 16:39 reporter ~0035257	Sent from within the VM. Thanks for the W/A.
