Vmware, error opening .vmdk file?

Question

VMware

When booting a virtual machine from ubuntu (desktop) an error occurs. The error appears at the stage of loading the OS, on a purple window with the inscription Ubuntu 10.10 and four dots on the progress bar.

'msg.vmxaiomgr.retrycontabort.rudeunplug:Operation on file &quot;E:\Virtual Machines\ubuntu\ubuntu.vmdk&quot; failed.<br/>
If the file resides on a remote file system, please make sure your network connection and the server where this disk resides are functioning properly. If the file resides on removable media, reattach the media.<br/>
Choose Retry to attempt the operation again.<br/>
Choose Abort to terminate this session.<br/>
Choose Continue to forward the error to the guest operating system.', попробуйте 'help'.

All 3 buttons lead to nothing positive.
Is there any way to extract information from this image?
PS naturally the specified file E:\Virtual Machines\ubuntu\ubuntu.vmdk exists.
I was even able to successfully convert it to the .vhd format using the Vmdk2Vhd.exe utility.
But even MicrosoftVirtualPC cannot start this OS.

Answer 1

Try to boot from some LiveCD and try to mount the partitions, because Ubuntu 10.10 is already some data that is available.

Answer 2

And where was this image previously connected? Is it possible to edit a virtual machine?

Answer 3

This image always lay along this path.
Editing is fine.

Answer 4

This situation arose after cutting down the light in the apartment. I did not make any changes to the controller or to the size of the disk.
