CentOS 6.4/6.5 Console Freeze Problem in VMware Fusion

$

I am having a extremely annoying problem with using CentOS 6.4+ in Fusion 6.0.2.

 

CentOS installs fine and more or less works ok, with one major exception.

The terminal keeps freezing until a key is pressed.

 

Usually, the first freeze occurs after it has finished booting, but before the login prompt appears. It will just sit there forever until I press a key, then the rest of the login prompt appears along with the key pressed. This will then continue to happen at irregular short intervals (every second or so) and even occur in the middle of a commands console output. It does not freeze during the boot or shutdown process. Other OS's, like Vista, openSUSE 13.1, Mountian Lion all work fine.

 

I remember years ago with SuSE 7, 8 or 9.x (was very long time ago) I had a similar issue on a bare metal install that was resolved by modifying the boot loader options.

 

Does anyone know if there is an option to correct this in VMware Fusion?

Or since I'm very new to CentOS, what option in the boot loader to change?
