[转+总结]Linux虚拟系统安装VMware Tools总结 转自中国网络 一、VMware Tools安装手记(For Linux Guest OS) 为什么要装 VMware Tools？ 因为它可以改善 Virtual Machine 的运行性能，而且可以让 Host OS 和 Guest OS 互通有无，这样我们就不用伤脑筋，要架设什么服务器，来沟通两个 OS，现在就让我们开始吧！ VMware Tools所在位置：VMware 安装路径 \VMware\VMware Workstation\linux.iso [root@rd01 ~]# mount /cdrom # 有时可能加载不了，这时就要先将系统关闭，再手动指定 ISO 映像，看下图 [root@rd01 ~]# cd /cdrom [root@rd01 ~]# ls -a [root@rd01 ~]# cp VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz /tmp [root@rd01 ~]# cd /tmp [root@rd01 ~]# tar zxpf VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz [root@rd01 ~]# cd vmware-tools-distrib [root@rd01 vmware-tools-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl Creating a new installer database using the tar3 format.

[/usr/lib/vmware-tools] Thepath "/usr/lib/vmware-tools" does not exist currently. This programisgoingto create it, including needed parent directories. Is thiswhatyou want? [yes] In which directory do you want to install the documentation files? [/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools] Thepath "/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools" does not exist currently.Thisprogram isgoing to create it, including needed parent directories.Isthis what you want? [yes] The installation of VMware Tools 5.5.1 build-19175 for Linux completed successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any time by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall-tools.pl". Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you need to configure it by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl". Do you want this program to invoke the command for you now? [yes] Stopping VMware Tools services in the virtual machine: Guest operating system daemon: [ 确定 ] Trying to find a suitable vmhgfs module for your running kernel.
