Dear Wong-san,
Below is what I think about your issue.

<<For VMX-10>>
I found the below line in the setting:
----
floppy0.present = "true"
----
Have you tried to change it into below?
----
floppy0.present = "false"
----
Also , I found the lines below that you added:
----
floppyX.present = "false"
serialX.present = "false"
parallelX.present = "false"
usb.present = "false"
ideX:Y.present = "false"
----
I guess you put it according to the technical guide:
----
The following parameters either should NOT be present
or should be set to FALSE, unless the device is required:
1. Floppy drives: floppyX.present
2. Serial ports: serialX.present
3. Parallel ports: parallelX.present
4. USB controller: usb.present
5. CD-ROM: ideX:Y.present
----
So, as long as above ones do NOT exist, it should be fine.
And the [X] (as in [floppyX], for example)seems more to be
the substitute for number like [0].

Here's the KB you may want to refer to:
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1714
<<For VMX20>>
I'm not sure about this, but below seems to be the
parameter for limit the size and number of the log file:
----
log.rotateSize = "100000"
log.keepOld = "10"
----
While below option is to STOP the log function:
----
logging=FALSE
----
Maybe you can try to erase either of them.
Love and Peace,
Camel Brown
