 Try disabling vmt.  In the boot loader (the first thing you see when
 booting that says "NetBSD/amd64" and counts down to 0), go to the
 boot prompt and type "userconf disable vmt0", then "boot".
 
 You'll probably have to do that after the installation too.  In order
 to make the change permanent you can then add this to your /boot.cfg
 (or compile a kernel without vmt0).
 
 
 There have been a few updates (in -current) to vmt(4) earlier this
 year, but I don't use VMWare Workstation and thus don't know if these
 are relevant to your issue.
