I wanna try Petasan local on my notebook. I used VM Ware Fusion version 10 on Mac. The question is,
1. What the OS that i choose to install Petasan on VM Ware? (e.g Other Linux 64bit, Ubuntu x64, etc).
2. How many RAM that Petasan need for local testing installation.
3. It is just a local testing. So, i use 8Gb HDD on 3 devices. I can install Petasan only on 8Gb HDD?
Thanks for you attention.

For light testing you can use 3G RAM per VM but if you test heavy io and you simulate a node failure, where recovery traffic is also happening then you should install close to the recommendation as possible.
The min is 32 GB for disk capacity. For test under VMWare the disk can be dynamic growing so it will not actually use that much storage.

It does work fine under VMWare Workstation with the resources outlined above...not sure about Fusion.
Can not access the image link, you should make share / give it public access... does it happen when you boot from installer iso or after you install ?

What disk controller are you using for your os boot disk ? is it ServeRAID ? Do you have other disks on the system that are not connected to this controller you can try as os disk ? can you remove any RAID configuration on the os disk and try.
My first feeling is the ServeRAID driver was not included in the initial ram disk initrd image required to boot the system. Do you have enough RAM ? Other possibility is the installer was not able to format the disk correctly,.
