The VMWare scriptis probably looking for /usr/src/kernels/`uname -r`
or/usr/src/kernels/`uname
-r`-`uname-i`

Check if you have /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.1.17-x86_64 and create a link
at
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre

ln
-s /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.1.17-x86_64

if that doesn't do it try

ln -s /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.1.17.el5_lustre-x86_64
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.1.17-x86_64
