Getting Sage VMWare image 4.6 to run

I have had trouble getting the SAGE VMWare image to talk to the external network but have found the solution:

sudo rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

I tried using VMware server, then Virtual Box and then VMWare player.  Vmware Player was painless although it uninstalled VMWare server.  Virtual box need to be adapted so as to do a new install then add the two hardisks and then it worked although I still had the networking problem.  I haven't tested this solution for Virtual Box - I deleted the modified virtual machine.

Solutions came from this thread who referenced Tim Child
