Same problem for me with error 22 after installing the pat file.
the adapter typ is IDE & the main disk is SCSI Node 0:0.
So how do i patch the pat to work?

I resovled error 22 issue by below steps:
1. Power on VM using a Linux live CD, in the console dd gnoBoot img to your boot disk (assume it's your first disk named boot_disk);
2. Poweroff your VM, then copy boot_disk.vmdk from datastore folder to local for backup purpose;
3. Power on VM to continue with assistant to complete install and configuration;
4. System will be reboot, sure, you will see error 22, don't be panic. Just power off VM, copy back your saved boot_disk.vmdk to overwrite the same one in datastore, then power on, go ahead for a fire.
