首先我想说vmware 在linux下安装真麻烦。
吐槽结束,然后看看我如何搞定它..
1.去官网https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/evalcenter?p=server20下载vmware server 2编译安装包,需注册才能下载.
2.修改vmware安装内核,由于vmware server 2 默认适配的是2.6.18版本linux内核,高版本内核均无法编译安装成功,CentOS6.3内核为2.6.32,此处在网上寻找资料耗费N长时间….最后终于找到(# 后面的为需要输入的命令)
# tar xzf VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64.tar.gz
Download patch ( Patch provided by: Ramon de Carvalho Valle ):
# wget http://linuxconfig.org/images/files/vmw … tch.tar.gz
Decompress patch:
# tar xzf vmware-Ubuntu-10.04.patch.tar.gz
First, we apply a patch to all modules:
# cd vmware-server-distrib/lib/modules/source/
# for f in *.tar ; do tar pxf $f ; done
# cd ~/vmware-server-distrib/
# patch -p1 < ~/vmware-server2.patch
patching file lib/modules/source/vmci-only/include/pgtbl.h
patching file lib/modules/source/vmnet-only/vnetUserListener.c
patching file lib/modules/source/vmci-only/Makefile
patching file lib/modules/source/vmmon-only/common/vmx86.c
patching file lib/modules/source/vmmon-only/include/compat_cred.h
patching file lib/modules/source/vmmon-only/include/x86svm.h
patching file lib/modules/source/vmmon-only/linux/driver.c
patching file lib/modules/source/vmmon-only/linux/hostif.c
patching file lib/modules/source/vmmon-only/Makefile
patching file lib/modules/source/vmnet-only/Makefile
patching file lib/modules/source/vmnet-only/netif.c
patching file lib/modules/source/vsock-only/Makefile
gzip all modules:
# cd ~/vmware-server-distrib/lib/modules/source/
# for f in vmci vmmon vmnet vsock ; do tar pcf $f.tar $f-only ; done
# rm -fr *-only
Apply patch to vmware-config.pl:
# cd
# patch vmware-server-distrib/bin/vmware-config.pl vmware-config.patch
patching file vmware-server-distrib/bin/vmware-config.pl
3. Step 3: Install VMware-server
At this stage everything is ready for VMware-server installation.When you will be during the vmware-server installation asked:
“Would you like to specify a different administrator?”
answer YES and enter your username. Otherwise root will by and administrator of you VMware-server installation.
# cd ~/vmware-server-distrib/
# ./vmware-install.pl
安装完成后开始配置VMware
运行 “/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl

完成后在浏览器里面用http://IP:8222或者https://IP:8333
其实就算用http://IP:8222也会转到https://IP:8333的
到此Linux下的VMware-server安装就算完成了
