I have absolutely no clue why, but the last time I tried a Debian 8 install inside vmware, using the normal text installer from the net install cd, I never could get it to boot. I don't have enough site to be able to see what's actually on the screen, but it certainly wasn't getting beyond just a second or two after powering on the vm. With any other distribution I've tried there, it worked great, so I never could quite understand why the latest debian was giving me issues with VMWare. That would certainly explain why you had no speech on starting it up and why none of your commands seem to work. haha Don't know if it matters or even if it's what's behind your issue, but I was trying it on the latest VMWare player with windows7 as the host.
