Vm-tools的安装

    有了上一次的经验，安装vmtools就显得轻松多了。废话不多说，具体过程如下：

    首先，选择镜像，如下图所示，注意这次选的是linux.iso,这个文件在你的虚拟机安装目录文件中。确定以后，桌面上又出现了光盘图标，这是你有可以从中读取文件了。

其次，将 VMwareTools-8.4.6-385536.tar.gz复制到某一目录中，如：

mkdir /mnt/cdrom %创建一个新目录，将压缩文件复制到此

然后解压文件

[root@localhost mnt]# cd /tmp
[root@localhost tmp]# tar zxpf VMwareTools-8.4.6-385536.tar.gz
[root@localhost tmp]# cd vmware-tools-distrib
[root@localhost vmware-tools-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl

接着会出现如下内容，yes即可

Creating a new VMware Tools installer database using the tar4 format.

Installing VMware Tools.

In which directory do you want to install the binary files? 
[/usr/bin] 

What is the directory that contains the init directories (rc0.d/ to rc6.d/)? 
[/etc/rc.d] 

What is the directory that contains the init scripts? 
[/etc/rc.d/init.d] 

In which directory do you want to install the daemon files? 
[/usr/sbin] 

In which directory do you want to install the library files? 
[/usr/lib/vmware-tools] 

The path "/usr/lib/vmware-tools" does not exist currently. This program is 
going to create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you want?
[yes] yes

In which directory do you want to install the documentation files? 
[/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools] 

The path "/usr/share/doc/vmware-tools" does not exist currently. This program 
is going to create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you 
want? [yes] 


The installation of VMware Tools 8.4.6 build-385536 for Linux completed 
successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any 
time by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall-tools.pl".

Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you need to configure it by 
invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl". Do you want 
this program to invoke the command for you now? [yes]

Found a compatible pre-built module for vmmemctl.  Installing it...


Could not create the '/mnt/hgfs' directory.
The filesystem driver (vmhgfs module) is used only for the shared folder 
feature. The rest of the software provided by VMware Tools is designed to work 
independently of this feature.

If you wish to have the shared folders feature, you can install the driver by 
running vmware-config-tools.pl again after making sure that gcc, binutils, make
and the kernel sources for your running kernel are installed on your machine. 
These packages are available on your distribution's installation CD.

The configuration of VMware Tools 8.4.6 build-385536 for Linux for this running
kernel completed successfully.

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

You can now run VMware Tools by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox-cmd" from the
command line or by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox" from the command line 
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

Enjoy,
