Same issue in vmware workstation 10. Checksum correct.
Interestingly it gives the 4 tones beep so I think it boots fully just the 
display hangs after "Waiting for /dev/ to be fully populated" (confirming this, 
none of ttys are accessible with ctrl-alt-f1 to f9).

As suggested by mika, without vga=791 or by using vga=normal it works.
