VM Appliance problem

I just downloaded and installed the VM version (6.0.1) from SourceForge and the appliance runs, but the keyboard has problems. When I press "/" I get a "-" and then I press "-" I get a strange capital B.

Because of this I cannot even do the setup as indicated in the VM setup guide.

I have it installed on an Windows XP 64bit host running VMPlayer and have several other VMs running with no problems on the machine. I did install the VMWare Tools to see if that impacted the issue and it had no effect.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ed

I have just imported the "OpenEMM-6.2-VMX" into my vSphere setup. I also have keyboard problems. When I press "/" I get "-".

You have to change the language settings to adapt the language used by Linux to your keyboard layout. Maybe this helps:
