Glad that you have no issue anymore, even thou we don't really know what the reason was :-/ I have to beg your pardon, but I have no extra experience with large disk access mdoe other than seeing a few forum/blog entries referring to it - there were no related bugs nor a lot of official

I tried a bit with this script but I never got any Data into the Log File. Now I did a Ubuntu Reinstallation. Now every thing worked and Ubuntu is Booting way faster. Maybe out of topic: If I boot into VMWARE Bios there is a "Large Disk Access Mode" This is set to DOS. Some Article in Internet

Hi Adler, I lack an env to repro but looking through search engines I think you want to check what the guest has in: $ find /etc/vmware-tools/scripts Check if the files there have the exec bit set (and add it if not) - I found reports of those being lost triggering the issue. You likely have
