Error when installing vCSA 6.0.0.2 on Workstation 12

Hi Experts

Im new to VMWare but really could do with some advice installing vCSA 6.0.0.2 in Workstation 12 for my evaluation lab. Following the normal suggestions including ammending mware-vcsa.vmx with a text editor and adding the lines like below. But when I power on the virtual machine I see error like "root password not set" "network not configured". Its like its not reading the lines below. Tried everything I can think of but no luck. Any suggestions?


Thanks
