As a caveat, the VMware image is really for demoing basic functionality. It is a true parallel-distributed database engine, and is not designed to run as a tiny local instance. The VMware instance is a custom build that disables a bunch of things mooted by being non-distributed and to be reasonably well-behaved on a system small enough that almost any GIS database would likely work.
