Linux虚拟系统安装VMware Tools总结

一、VMware Tools安装手记(For Linux Guest OS)


为什么要装 VMware Tools?

因为它可以改善 Virtual Machine 的运行性能,而且可以让 Host OS 和 Guest OS 互通有无,这样我们就不用伤脑筋,要架设什么,来沟通两个 OS,现在就让我们开始吧!

VMware Tools所在位置:VMware 安装路径 /VMware/VMware Workstation/linux.iso

[root@rd01 ~]#mount /cdrom
# 有时可能加载不了,这时就要先将系统关闭,再手动指定 ISO 映像,看下图
[root@rd01 ~]#cd /cdrom
[root@rd01 ~]#ls -a
[root@rd01 ~]#cp VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz /tmp
[root@rd01 ~]#cd /tmp
[root@rd01 ~]#tar zxpf VMwareTools-5.5.1-19175.tar.gz
[root@rd01 ~]#cd vmware-tools-distrib
[root@rd01 vmware-tools-distrib]#./vmware-install.pl

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/)?

What is the directory that contains the initscripts?
[/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]

Thepath "/usr/lib/vmware-tools" does not exist currently. This programisgoingto create it, including needed parent directories. Is thiswhatyou want?
[yes]

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

[yes]

The installation of VMware Tools 5.5.1 build-19175 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]

# 修改完成之后,重新启动计算机,让 VMware Tools 生效


# 重新启动计算机之后,我们就会发觉到,当我们要离开 Guest OS 的时候,不再需要按 Ctrl + Alt 了,

# 现在我们来共享 Host OS 的文件夹给 Guest 使用,〔VM〕→〔设置 Ctrl + D〕

# 注:左下角原本都会显示「You do not have VMware Tools installed」,现在我们装了 VMware Tools,就不再显示了














# 这就是共享完毕的画面,然后我们就需要到 Guest OS 内,看看可不可以读取到刚刚共享的目录

# 顺利的话,我们只要到「/mnt/hgfs」文件夹,就可以看到刚刚共享的文件夹了

五、如何在Ubuntu 7.10下安装VMware Tools

1.安装编译环境:

sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`

2.在VMware的菜单中,点击VM->Install VMware Tools,你将看到有光盘被加载。

解压缩VMwareTools*.tar.gz文件。执行命令

cd ~/Desktop/vmware-tools-distrib

sudo ./vmware-install.pl

注意:ubuntu7.10需要VMware
Workstation版本足够高(即VMware-tools版本足够高)才能安装VMware-tools成功。V5.5版不能成功,V6.0才行,不过只要有V6.0版的linux.iso也行,只要替换原linux.iso即可。

下面是从VMware WorkstationV6.0
linux.iso中提取的VMware-tools安装文件,为了便于上传用win-rar分割压缩成了多个30M的文件,下载解压缩后可以用FTP工具放到虚拟机上安装的linux系统下,相关软件可以从Linuxeden软件中心下载

(已更换了vmhgfas.tar,不用做下面的共享补丁操作)

V6.0 linux.iso (VMware-tools安装文件提取)下载

vmware-tools-distrib.part1.rar

vmware-tools-distrib.part2.rar

解决文件共享问题

vmware6.0 下vmware tools 文件共享模块补丁vmhgfs.tar 下载

vmhgfs.tar存在eof调用的问题,所以每次编译总是不能通过,只需要把附件替换掉
/usr/lib/vmware-tools/modules/source 下面的vmhgfs.tar,然后到/usr/bin下运行 sudo
./vmware-config-tools.pl ,一路回车就好了。

VMware Tools安装后虚拟机中的鼠标的滚轮无法使用

打开终端,输入:

$ sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

这个命令使系统以root权限打开鼠标配置文件/etc/X11/xorg.conf。把文件中的

Option "Protocol" "ps/2"

改成

Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"

重启Ubuntu搞定。

八、Ubuntu安装VMware tools
 

先进入Ubuntu系统,然后切换到VMware Workstation中的VM菜单->Install VMware Tools,Ubuntu的桌面上会自动挂载VMwareTools的光驱(比红帽稍稍人性化一点),双击进入,里面有两个安装文件,一个是rmp格式,一个是tar.gz格式。因为Ubuntu默认不支持rpm安装,所以选择用解压tar.gz文件进行安装。
由于安装 VMware Tools 需要针对新内核重新编译模块,所以必须先安装基本编译系统和内核头文件。
代码 :
$sudo apt-get install build-essential
$uname -r(
得到内核版本号 )
$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
(把得到的版本号代入到 'uname -r'
解压与安装:
$ tar zxf /media/cdrom/VMwareTool-5.0.0-*.tar.gz (随版本号改变)
$ cd vmware-tools-distrib
$ sudo ./vmware-install.pl

往后一路回车就ok了
 

安装vmwaretools还有另外一个工具,试过后,觉得比解压再后再安装方便.
就是用光盘中的另一个文件"rpm"文件.步骤基本上相似.
[root@rd01 ~]# cd /cdrom
[root@rd01 cdrom]#ls
VMwareTools-5.5.3-34685.i386.rpm
[root@rd01 ~]# rpm -ivh VMwareTools-5.5.3-34685.i386.rpm
安装完后运行"vmware-config-tools.pl"
基本上不需要选择太多.然后重启就可以了.
不过在linux的各种命令行下输入"命令"或"软件名"一定要注意大小写!!!
我装VMwareTools的时候没注意,烦了我几天.
