Install VMware Tools | 通过命令行安装VMware Tools

Linux图形界面下安装VMware Tools自不待言,自己根据VMware的用户手册,尝试着通过几行简单的Linux命令,成功安装了VMware Tools。所有命令和步骤如下,安装和配置过程中的客户化定制已略。

[root@macroinfo ~]# mkdir /mnt/cdrom (# If necessary, create the /mnt/cdrom directory)
[root@macroinfo ~]# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom (# mount the CD-ROM drive)
mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
[root@macroinfo ~]# cd /tmp (# change to a working directory)
[root@macroinfo tmp]# tar zxpf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-8.4.4-301548.tar.gz (# uncompress the installer)
[root@macroinfo tmp]# umount /dev/cdrom (# unmount the CD-ROM image)
[root@macroinfo tmp]# cd vmware-tools-distrib
[root@macroinfo vmware-tools-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl (# run the VMware Tools installer)
