Linux VMware Tools安装步骤简易版

Linux VMware Tools安装估计有点困难，我也在网上看了好多版本的Linux安装VMware Tools，方法都一样。但是自己在安装过程中，还是遇到了点问题。但是最终还是搞定。我运行的是VMware workstation 8.0.4 , OS: CentOS 6.0

1. 在CD-ROM虚拟光驱中选择使用ISO镜像，找到VMWARE TOOLS 安装文件，如C:\\program\\VMware\\VMware Workstation\\Programs\\linux.iso

当然这个ISO是你安装VMware workstation 的目录下的Linux.iso，不是你的Linux OS 镜像文件。VMware Tools一般都在这个文件里。

2. 以管理员身份进入Linux，root账号

3. 退出到windows,在虚拟机菜单栏中点击 虚拟机-> 安装 VMWARE TOOLS 子菜单,会弹出对话框，点击"确认" 安装

4. 挂载光驱：Mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt

加载CDROM设备，这是如果进入/mnt 目录下，你会发现一个文件：

VMwareTools-8.8.4-743747.tar.gz

这个就死VMware Tools的Linux软件包，也是我们刚才使用的WinISO打开的Liunx.ISO

有的虚拟机上估计执行mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

如果提示如下错误，挂载点不存在。，\[root@localhost /\]\#mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

mount: mount point /mnt/cdrom dose not exist

请直接执行此命令：

mount /dev/cdrom /opt

cd /opt

或者应该可以使用自动挂载，直接进入

cd /misc/cd

5. copy 此文件到临时文件夹

cp /mnt/mVMwareTools-8.8.4-743747.tar.gz /tmp

6. 卸载CDROM，执行 umount /dev/cdrom

7. 进入tmp文件目录并解压此文件包

cd /tmp

tar zxf vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz

解压默认到vmware-tools-distrib目录下：此时你可以使用ls -ll 查看文件夹下的文件

8. 进入vmware-tools-distrib，安装vmware tools.

https://www.cnblogs.com/shanhua-fu/p/vmware-install.pl 执行安装，

安装过程中他会一步一步的有问题回应，此过程中，你遇到后面显示\[yes\],\[no\],\[yes\]\[no\]的直接输入yes，然后回车。其他的问题不管\[\]里面是什么，直接回车就好了，不要输入。

9. 大约5分钟左右安装完成。 执行init 6重启ok。

You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take

effect.

You can now run VMware Tools by invoking the following command:

"/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox" during an X server session.

To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and

file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:

1. Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user

2. Log out and log back into your desktop session; and,

3. Restart your X session.

To use the vmxnet driver, restart networking using the following commands:

/etc/init.d/network stop

rmmod pcnet32

rmmod vmxnet

modprobe vmxnet

/etc/init.d/network start
