vmware 安装gentoo注意的事项

 参考：http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_Gentoo_on_VMware_4_in_Windows_NT/2K/XP

第一关：虚拟机的网卡

mware有三种模式：

桥接模式：把虚拟机当成一个真正主机，端口全部对外开放。

NAT模式：与host共享网卡上网，如果要ssh必须在vmware 的nat tab中进行端口映射。

host－only模式：与主机完全分离的模式。

最简单最好用的就是nat模式了，如果不把虚拟机当成服务器使用，建议使用NAT模式。

把ssh端口22 映射出来。

 

第二关：内核配置

配置内核首先要对自己的机器硬件环境非常熟悉，只有配置好了驱动才能正常的使用机子。

可以使用lspci和lsmod，查看检测到的设备以及livecd加载的所有模块。这样才配置内核时可以参考配置。

 VMWare Tools

VMware Tools uses Kernel Loadable Module support to load and unload its driver(s).

Linux Kernel Configuration: kernel loadable module support

Loadable module support ---> [*] Enable loadable module support [*] Module unloading [*] Automatic kernel module loading

 Intel PCI/ISA Bridge

Linux Kernel Configuration: Intel PCI/ISA Bridge

Bus options (PCI etc.) ---> [*] PCI Support [*] ISA Support

SCSI Controller

LSI Logic

Linux Kernel Configuration: LSI Logic SCSI adapter

Device Drivers ---> Fusion MPT device support ---> <*> Fusion MPT (base + ScsiHost) drivers OR <*> Fusion MPT ScsiHost drivers for SPI [kernel 2.6.13] Device Drivers ---> SCSI device support ---> <*> SCSI device support <*> SCSI disk support SCSI low-level drivers ---> <*> SYM53C8XX Version 2 SCSI support

BusLogic

By default, VMware virtual machines provide a BusLogic SCSI controller and a SCSI hard drive. Your new kernel should have these device drivers for them:

Linux Kernel Configuration: BusLogic SCSI

Device Drivers ---> SCSI device support ---> <*> SCSI device support <*> SCSI disk support SCSI low-level drivers ---> <*> BusLogic SCSI support

 CDROM

Linux Kernel Configuration: Intel PIIXn chipset and ISO9660 File System

Device Drivers ---> ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support ---> <*> Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL disk/cdrom/tape/floppy support <*> Include IDE/ATAPI CDROM support [*] PCI IDE chipset support [*] Generic PCI bus-master DMA support <*> Intel PIIXn chipsets support File systems ---> CD-ROM/DVD Filesystems ---> <*> ISO 9660 CDROM file system support [*] Microsoft Joliet CDROM extensions

Network

You will need to enable the following to get basic packet and TCP/IP support.

Linux Kernel Configuration: Network

Networking ---> [*] Networking support Networking options ---> <*> Packet socket <*> Unix domain sockets [*] TCP/IP networking

PCnet-PCI II

Linux Kernel Configuration: Network

Device Drivers ---> Network Device support ---> [*] Network device support Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) ---> [*] Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) [*] EISA, VLB, PCI and on board controllers <*> AMD PCnet32 PCI support

Audio

Linux Kernel Configuration: Sound

Device Drivers ---> Sound ---> <*> Sound card support Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ---> <*> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture <*> OSS Mixer API <*> OSS PCM (digital audio) API PCI devices ---> <*> (Creative) Ensoniq AudioPCI 1371/1373

udev Support

Linux Kernel Configuration: Miscellaneous Things

File Systems ---> Pseudo filesystems ---> <*> /proc file system support < > /proc/kcore support <*> Sysctl support (/proc/sys) <*> sysfs file system support <*> Virtual memory file system support (former shm fs)

第三关：安装gnome

按照官方文档，安装gnome的时候出现循环依赖。解决办法是：

USE="-qt3 -qt4 -arts -kde X dbus gtk gnome hal avahi"
去掉最后边的avahi。

关于每个use标示的意义可以在/usr/portage/profiles/use.desc中查看。

还有就是use中最好去掉-doc 很容易导致循环依赖。
