Booting to recovery mode in macOS 11 Big Sur not working

Hello,

I installed macOS 11.0.1 (Big Sur) in VMware Fusion 11. Unfortunately I'm no longer able to boot the OS into recovery mode (CMD+R). The VM seems to make an endless restart in this case until I release the keys. Then it boots into normal mode. For my VM with macOS Catalina with exact same settings this works just fine.

Has anybody experienced similar behavior and/or knows how to fix this problem?

My host environment: macOS Catalina 10.15.7, MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018), 2,9 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i9, 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4

Best
Michael

I am experiencing the exact same thing, but in vCenter and accessing it through VMware Remote Console. Also running Big Sur, which was upgraded from Catalina.
