VMware blames Apple for Fusion corruption

A bug in Mac OS X can cause loss of data in VMware Fusion virtual machines, company officials have warned. Fusion is VMware's virtualisation product for Mac OS X. According to VMware, the underlying problem is in the way Mac OS X handles unbuffered I/O. The issue is variously referred to as either a bug or"a disagreement between Fusion and OS X about what sequences of disk-write calls are legal to make."
