Been trying to get this installed on VMWare Workstation 8. Using the kali-linux-1.0-amd64.iso image.

Three different install attempts, and it isn't recognizing the VMWare NIC. Is this to be expected, and is there a way around it? I did used the appliance, which failed at first until I saw another post about changing the virtualHW.version version to "8". That works (at least for accepting the NIC and getting me to see my network). But I'd really like a fresh install if for no other reason than to say I got the **** thing installed.
