Starting with OS X Mavericks, you need to do a more complicated procesdure. In earlier times, all you needed to do was to convert that InstallESD.dmg into an ISO and you could install OS X in VMWare from scratch. For some reason, Apple decided that the InstallESD.dmg that comes with the Mavericks Install as downloaded from the App Store shouldn't be a bootable DVD image anymore.
