Many people (including me), get:
Couldn't find any pid file in '/data/deploy/cortland/releases/20080623202133/tmp/pids' matching 'dispatch.[0-9]*.pid'
This is because you've (correctly) started your mongrel with mongrel_cluster, and it does not create the PIDs with the same name.
To fix this, change your mongrel_cluster.yaml file to say:
pid_file: tmp/pids/dispatch.pid

When moving a physical machine into a VM, you'll likely have to add the RIGHT SCSI interface, if you are using SCSI in the VM (it works better than IDE).
I did the copy by installing a minimal debian system into my new VM, and then doing a dump/restore copy of my physical system.
(The system in question is a firewall. No loadable modules. Static kernel only)
I had a hell of of a time getting the right SCSI interface, however.
It's not an item under "Device-Drivers" SCSI. It's the Fusion MPT Device Support!
