I've been trying unsuccessfully to install Fedora 21 on a VM within Workstation 7.1.6. Failing this, I tried Fedora 20, no joy. with four or five different installation image files, the kernel panics early in the boot phase. It was suggested in the Fedora forum that Workstation 7 was not capable of running recent Linux kernels. I routinely ran Fedora 19 in WS 7 but no luck with Fedora 2[0,1]. Are they correct? Is there any sort of work around?
