[Grml] grml 1.1 does not recognize vmware disks anymore

[Peter]

Hi
I was just trying to install the new 1.1 release grml 1.1 rc iso inside 
VMware workstation 6. I have already done this successfully with grml 1.0.

However, when I do :

# fisk /dev/sda

I get :

Error: Unable to open /dev/sda : Unrecognized disk label

This did not happen in grml 1.0 where I was able to create a partition 
with fdisk on /dev/sda

Any ideas ?

Thanks
Peter
