I'm trying to create a virtual machine of Fedora 13 on VM Ware Workstation 10 but it keeps sitting at this screen:

I let it sit there forever and it doesn't do anything. I created a Windows 7 virtual machine just fine. Bot VM's have 30GB of storage and 2GB of memory. Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thank you.
 
Solution
Short of switching to a host machine with an Intel processor there's nothing you can do. This has to be fixed by the Fedora crew. I also wouldn't be expecting them to backport any fixes all the way back to v13.

I can't use a different fedora, it has to be 13. I'm using this for a college course and we have to use 13.
 
It looks like I got the assignment, not you...

Oracle' VirtualBox cannot import VmWare appliances, but I was able to create new VirtualBox VM with 512mb RAM, using existing disk images from this Fedora Appliance, and booted to the desktop. Now, someone has to read what is the password, but this won't be me ;)
 

If you create an OVF format appliance it can.
