VMware, Inc.
To install VMware Tools on a Linux guest with the tar installer or RPM installer
1
On
the
VM
Templates
page,
move
the
pointer
over
the
virtual
machine
template
name
and
select
View Console
.
2
Log
in
to
the
guest
operating
system
in
the
virtual
machine
console.
3
Click
Install
VMware
Tools
.
The
remaining
steps
take
place
in
the
guest
operating
system.
4
As
root
(
su -
),
mount
the
VMware
Tools
virtual
CD
‐
ROM
image
and
change
to
a
working
directory
(for
example,
/tmp
).
Some
Linux
distributions
automatically
mount
CD
‐
ROMs.
If
your
distribution
uses
automounting,
do
not
use
the
mount
and
umount
commands
described
in
this
procedure.
You
still
must
untar
the
VMware
Tools
installer
to
/tmp
.
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
following
commands
to
reflect
the
conventions
used
by
your
distribution.
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /tmp
If
you
have
an
existing
installation,
delete
the
vmware-tools-distrib
directory
before
you
install.
The
location
of
this
directory
depends
on
where
you
placed
it
when
you
did
the
previous
installation,
for
example,
/tmp/vmware-tools-distrib
.
5
Uncompress
the
installer
and
unmount
the
CD
‐
ROM
image.
For
the
tar
installer,
at
the
command
prompt,
type:
tar zxpf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-3.5.0-<xxxx>.tar.gz
umount /dev/cdrom
<xxxx>
is
the
build/revision
number
of
the
release.
This
tar
installer
string
applies
to
an
ESX
3.5
host.
If
you
are
using
an
ESX
4.0
host,
type
tar zxpf
/mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-4.0.0-<xxxx>.tar.gz
For
the
RPM
installer,
at
the
command
prompt,
type:
rpm -Uhv /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-3.5.0-<xxxx>.i386.rpm
umount /dev/cdrom
<xxxx>
is
the
build/revision
number
of
the
release.
This
rpm
installer
string
applies
to
an
ESX
3.5
host.
If
you
are
using
an
ESX
4.0
host,
type
tar zxpf
/mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-4.0.0-<xxxx>.i386.gz
If
you
attempt
to
install
an
rpm
installation
over
a
tar
installation,
or
the
reverse,
the
installer
detects
the
previous
installation
and
must
convert
the
installer
database
format
before
continuing.
