I don't believe this is a VMWare related bug. I have the same issue on a physical machine.
I have floppy disk support enabled in the BIOS setup, but don't have a floppy drive installed. The reason for this is that disabling the floppy support makes grub take longer to start.
The bug goes away if I disable the floppy in the BIOS configuration.
I never had any problem with this configuration until I upgraded to 12.10.
