Can run VM from USB fat32 harddrive, but once copied won't open...

Hi All!

trying to copy a few of my vm's from an usb fat32 drive.. they (still) run great from the usb drive, but once on the desktop of the mac it just says "cannot not open fil <path to vmdk> ......"

i've checked permissions, tried creating a new machine and attaching the vmdk's.. same error... please help me here... im pretty beat...

Kind Regards Kenneth Christensen

just my luck.. the s-020.vmdk was missing.. and strangly rename to win20.VMD on the os x .. after renaming the file (which appear correctly on the fat32 drive) everything is working again...
