Ubuntu 9.10中安装VMware Server 1.0.x

嘻嘻,终于在Ubuntu9.10中安装了VMware Server 2.0.2,整个安装过程花了我一个下午的时间~

避免下次不会,特意转到这个地方.原文见http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2009-12/23539p10.htm

本教程一步步地教导你怎样在Ubuntu 9.10桌面系统中安装 VMware Server 1.0.x (撰写本文时是1.0.10) . 这适合于那些偏爱VMware Server 1.0.x而不是VMware Server 2的用户.

使用VMware Server你可以在主机操作系统中创建并安装客户操作系统 ("虚拟机器") 比如 Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, 等等. 这样你可以获得一些益处，比如你可以在同一套硬件上运行多个操作系统，节省很多费用。你还可以将虚拟机从一个VMware Server迁移到另一个Server (也可以迁移到一个装有VMware Player的系统，那玩意也是免费的).

同时，使用VMware Server你还可以让你的最老的Windows桌面跑在你的Ubuntu 桌面之上 (之前你需要通过VMware Converter将其转化成VMware虚拟机， 就像下面这个教程中描述的那样。有时候这非常有用，如果你依赖一些只能存在于Windows的应用程序，或者想慢一点转换到Linux的话。

我并不能做出任何保证说这种办法一定可以适用于你!

安装 VMware Server 1.0.x

想下载VMware Server可以来这里点击 那个VMware Server 1.0.10 的链接:

在接下来的页面，点击VMware Server for Linux 旁边的Download按钮(文件类型: tar.gz, 不是 rpm!):

通过点击Yes来接受许可证协议:

然后下载VMware Server for Linux 的.tar.gz 文件 (不是rpm文件!) 到你的电脑 (比如放到 /home/falko/Downloads):

为了得到序列号你需要运行VMware Server, 然后来这里 . 填写好你的个人详细信息. 然后你就可以看到一个带有 VMware Server序列号的页面. 将其记下来或者打印下来:

接下来打开终端 (Applications > Accessories > Terminal):

运行下面的命令来安装一些需要的软件包:

sudo aptitude install build-essential xinetd

如果你在x86_64系统上面, 你还需要安装ia32-libs这个包:

sudo aptitude install ia32-libs

然后来到你保存VMware Server的 .tar.gz文件的地方，如 /home/falko/Downloads (将falko换成你自己的用户名!):

cd /home/falko/Downloads

解压VMware Server的 .tar.gz文件并且运行安装程序:

tar xvfz VMware-server-*.tar.gz

cd vmware-server-distrib

sudo ./vmware-install.pl

安装程序会问你一大堆的问题. 当然你总是可以通过简单的敲击 来接受默认的那个值. 不过下面这个问题你要回答no...

Before running VMware Server for the first time, you need to configure it by

invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl". Do you want this

program to invoke the command for you now? [yes]

.. 因为不这么干的话在试图编译VMWare所需要的内核模块时你会遇到一个类似于下面这样的错误 (如果你回答了yes并且碰到了这些错误那也没啥大问题——继续阅读下去即可):

falko@falko-desktop:~/Downloads/vmware-server-distrib$

然后这么干:

cd /home/falko/Downloads

wget -c http://www.insecure.ws/warehouse/vmware-update-2.6.31-5.5.9.tar.bz2

tar xvfj vmware-update*.tar.bz2

在结束VMware Server安装之前, 我们必须编译一个开启了init_mm特征的新内核. 先变成root...

sudo su

... 接着安装内核源码:

aptitude install linux-source-2.6.31

接下来我们安装一些编译内核所需要的软件包:

aptitude install fakeroot build-essential crash kexec-tools makedumpfile kernel-wedge build-dep linux libncurses5-dev kernel-package

如果在命令执行过程中你看到说一个新内核已经安装好时，请重启一下系统 :

reboot

现在再次变成root:

sudo su

接着这么干:

cd /usr/src

tar xvfj linux-source-2.6.31.tar.bz2

cd linux-source-2.6.31

打开 arch/x86/kernel/init_task.c...

gedit arch/x86/kernel/init_task.c

... 在文件的尾部添加这么一行 EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL(init_mm); 要在 DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED(struct tss_struct, init_tss) = INIT_TSS;的后面:

[...]

DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED(struct tss_struct, init_tss) = INIT_TSS;

EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL(init_mm);

然后将当前内核的配置文件拷贝到内核源码目录...

cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config

... 并且运行:

make menuconfig

在内核配置菜单上选择Load an Alternate Configuration File...

... 填上.config并选择Ok:

然后选择内核配置主菜单上的Exit...

... 接下来当你问到Do you wish to save your new kernel configuration?时选择Yes

然后运行

make-kpkg clean

fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers

来编译新内核. 这里需要大量的时间所以耐心一点.

在这之后你会在/usr/src/目录发现一个linux-image和一个linux-headers的 .deb包:

cd /usr/src/

ls -l

root@falko-desktop:/usr/src# ls -l

total 461180

drwxr-xr-x 23 root root      4096 2009-10-27 19:16 linux-headers-2.6.31-14

drwxr-xr-x  7 root root      4096 2009-10-27 19:16 linux-headers-2.6.31-14-generic

drwxr-xr-x 23 root root      4096 2009-12-11 16:57 linux-headers-2.6.31-16

-rw-r--r--  1 root src  403726102 2009-12-11 19:48 linux-image-2.6.31.4-custom_2.6.31.4-custom-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb

root@falko-desktop:/usr/src#

向下面这样安装这两个包...

dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.31.4-custom_2.6.31.4-custom-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb linux-headers-2.6.31.4-custom_2.6.31.4-custom-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb

... 再重启系统:

reboot

然后, 作为一个普通用户运行

uname -a

... , 你就可以看到你的新内核了:

falko@falko-desktop:~$ uname -a

Linux falko-desktop 2.6.31.4-custom #1 SMP Fri Dec 11 17:36:56 CET 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

falko@falko-desktop:~$

现在我们可以继续 VMware Server 的安装:

cd /home/falko/Downloads/vmware-update*/

sudo ./runme.pl

这一回下面这个问题可以回答yes:

Before running VMware for the first time after update, you need to configure it

for your running kernel by invoking the following command:

"/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl". Do you want this script to invoke the command for

you now? [no]

以后的问题你可以简单敲击 来接受默认值.

当安装程序询问这个时：

In which directory do you want to keep your virtual machine files?

[/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines]

你既可以接受默认值，也可以指定一个有充足空间来存放你的虚拟机的地方.

在安装即将结束的时候会要求你输入序列号:

Please enter your 20-character serial number.

Type XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX or 'Enter' to cancel:

填入你的VMware Server序列号.

成功安装以后，你可以删除VMware Server的下载文件和安装目录:

cd /home/falko/Downloads

rm -f VMware-server*

rm -fr vmware-server-distrib/

rm -fr vmware-update*

你可以在这个地方找到VMware Server： Applications > Other > VMware Server Console:

启动的时候选择 Local hos:

接下来你就可以创建虚拟机了 (或者导入你用 VMware Converter创建的Windows虚拟机):
