Installing VMware Tools in a Linux Virtual Machine

Power on the virtual machine.

After the guest operating system has started, prepare your virtual machine to install VMware Tools.

Choose Settings > VMware Tools Install.

The remaining steps take place inside the virtual machine.

As root, open a terminal, mount the VMware Tools virtual CD-ROM image, copy its contents to /tmp, then unmount it.

Note: You do not use an actual CD-ROM to install VMware Tools, nor do you need to download the CD-ROM image or burn a physical CD-ROM of this image file. The GSX Server software contains an ISO image that looks like a CD-ROM to your guest operating system. This image contains all the files needed to install VMware Tools in your guest operating system.

Note: Some Linux distributions use different device names or organize the /dev directory differently. If your CD-ROM drive is not /dev/cdrom, modify the following commands to reflect the conventions used by your distribution.

Note: Some Linux distributions automatically mount CD-ROMs. If your distribution uses automounting, do not use the mount and umount commands below. You still must copy the VMware Tools installer.

mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt
cp /mnt/vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz /tmp
umount /dev/cdrom

Untar the VMware Tools tar file in /tmp, and install it.

cd /tmp
tar zxf vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz
cd vmware-linux-tools
./install.pl

Start X and your graphical environment if they are not started yet.

In an X terminal, launch the VMware Tools background application.

You may run VMware Tools as root or as a normal user. To shrink virtual disks, you should run VMware Tools as root (su -).
