Linux系统下安装VMware虚拟机

Linux系统下安装VMware虚拟机

Linux系统

在Linux 下，VMware 提供了两种按装包：tar 包和RPM 包 其中，后者更容易安装，这里以Redhat Linux 9系统为例。

使用tar 包安装

登陆Linux 主机

[sanren@localhost sanren]$

登陆到管理员权限

[sanren@localhost sanren]$ su -

Password:

[root@localhost root]#

进入临时目录

[root@localhost root]# cd /tmp

解压缩tar 包

[root@localhost tmp]# tar –zxvf VMware-workstation-6.0.0-45731.i386.tar.gz

执行安装命令

[root@localhost tmp]# cd ./vmware-distrib/vmware-install.pl

开始安装

linux下后台启动vm虚拟机技巧

经常发现使用vmrun start xxxxx.vmx nogui的方式启动linux下的虚拟机，常常失败。而用vmplayer是没有问题的，后来发现虚拟机目录下有些lck和vmem的后缀文件，删除这些文件即可顺利启动vm了。      rm -fr *.lck      rm -fr *.vmem      vmrun start rhel3.vmx nogui &        另外，光能够使用vmplayer播放是不够的。一定要事先使用vmworkstation,能够播放，才算ok.第一次使用workstation时需要输入序列号的。
