安装VMTools工具

 

我们这一次主要是用“VMwareTools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz ”来安装VMTools工具！

 

[root@localhost ~]# mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt         #加载CDROM设备

 

//这时如果进入 /mnt 目录下，你将会发现多了一个文件：VMwareTools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz 。这就是WMWARE TOOLS的LINUX软件包，

mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/cdrom already mounted or /mnt busy
mount: according to mtab, /dev/hdc is already mounted on /mnt
[root@localhost ~]# cp /mnt/VMwareTools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz /tmp     //将该软件包拷贝到CentOS的tmp目录下
[root@localhost ~]# cd /tmp      #进入tmp目录         
[root@localhost tmp]# tar zxf VMwareTools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz      //压缩该软件包，默认解压到vmware-linux-distrib目录下（与文件名同名）。

[root@localhost tmp]# ls     //查看一下tmp目录下的文件和文件夹
