挂载光盘，解压光盘内的tar安装包，并安装（Install VMware Tools in a Linux Guest）

下面是vmware帮助文档里在linux下安装vmware tools的步骤，觉得不错。

其中红字为重要步骤。

Before you begin, make sure the virtual machine is powered on and the guest operating system is running.

To install VMware Tools in a Linux guest

1

On the host, select VM > Install VMware Tools.

If an earlier version of VMware Tools is installed, the menu item is Update VMware Tools. If the current version is installed, the menu item is Reinstall VMware Tools.

2

On the guest, log in as root.

//切换用户，以root用户登录

su root

3

If your Linux distribution does not automatically mount CD-ROMs, mount the VMware Tools virtual CD-ROM image.

a If necessary, create the /mnt/cdrom directory:

mkdir /mnt/cdrom

b Mount the CD-ROM drive.

Some Linux distributions use different device names or organize the /dev directory differently. If your CD-ROM drive is not /dev/cdrom or if the mount point for a CD-ROM is not /mnt/cdrom, modify the command to reflect the conventions used by your distribution.

//将cd-rom设备（/dev/cdrom ）挂载到相应设备（即光驱）的挂载点（/mnt/cdrom）

mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

4

Change to a working directory (for example, /tmp):

cd /tmp

5

If a previous installation exists, delete the previous vmware-tools-distrib directory.

The location of this directory depends on where you placed it during the previous installation. Often it is placed in /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib.

6

Uncompress the installer:

//解压安装包

tar zxpf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-<x.x.x>-<yyyy>.tar.gz

The value <x.x.x> is the product version number and <yyyy> is the build number of the product release.

7

If necessary, unmount the CD-ROM image.

If your Linux distribution automatically mounted the CD-ROM, you do not need to unmount the image.

umount /dev/cdrom

8

Run the VMware Tools installer.

cd vmware-tools-distrib

//执行安装脚本文件vmware-install.pl，vmware-install.pl为解压出来的文件。

./vmware-install.pl

Respond to the questions the command-line wizard displays on the screen. Press Enter to accept the default value. The configuration file, vmware-config-tools.pl, runs after the installer file finishes running.

9

If you are updating VMware Tools, reboot the virtual machine or manually reload the pvscsi, vmxnet, and vmxnet3 Linux kernel modules.

If you reload the modules, networking on the virtual machine is interrupted.

10

Enter the following commands to restore the network:

/etc/init.d/network stop

rmmod vmxnet

modprobe vmxnet

/etc/init.d/network start

11

Log out of the root account.

exit

12

(Optional) Start your graphical environment.

13

In an X terminal, to start the VMware User process, enter the following command:

vmware-user

To change the default VMware Tools configuration options, see Open the VMware Tools Control Panel.
