Today I installed the ovf VMware appliance template. No problems. After running through the config, did the recommended "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" as suggested in the docs, and now it won't boot. Kernel panic.
If I use grub to go to the last boot config ("Ubuntu, with Linux 3.13.0-39-generic") instead of the updated default boot config ("Ubuntu, with Linux 3.13.0-43-generic"), I can still boot fine.
On another note, I can't seem to SSH into the VM. No matter what I do, access is denied. I don't see anything in auth.log from the console, and I've fiddled with some sshd config options to no avail, too. What magic is needed to just SSH in from the same LAN? It would be nice to SSH so I could have a larger console for comparing the grub entries, etc.
