Aways create a VMFS using the VI client, or offset the partition by 128 blocks if using fdisk. It should be noted that the information regarding offsets from

The VMware guides say that you shouldn't create VMFS partitions during installation. Instead, you should create them from Virtual Center. If you create then with Virtual Center it's supposed to take care of the offset issue for you. Just an FYI regarding partition offsets.
