What is the crash you are experiencing with ubiquity on VMPlayer? Which 
image, host and version of VMPlayer ? Could you give a bug number or 
file one and attach the content of /var/log/installer and /var/log/syslog ?

I tried with VMPlayer 4.0.1 on Windows 64bit with Easy Install and 
today's desktop 64bit installs fine (reboot must be forced at the end of 
the install though)
I didn't do deep testing but after reboot Unity 3D is running correctly.

We are running daily testing on KVM but there is no "blessed" VM 
technology. Many people use virtualbox to test dailies, but VMWare works 
too. We are manually testing it at each milestone.
