VMware virtual machine Linux VMware Tools installation method

Linux requirements and Windows sharing Folders under VMware require the installation of VMware Tools, but if the RPM format may not be successful, then manual installation is required.
1 into Linux as root
2 Exit to Windows, click the Enable VMWARE Tools submenu under the Setting menu to confirm the installation
3 Use the Virtual CD-ROM to load the ISO image, the path is C:/Program files/vmware/vmware Workstation/programs/linux.iso
4 go to Linux run Mount-t iso9660/dev/cdrom/mnt
Load the CDROM device, then if you enter the/MNT directory, you will find one more file: vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz. This is the Linux software package for WMware tools, which we just saw using Winiso to open the Linux.iso file.
Cp/mnt/vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz/tmp
Copy the package to the Linux tmp directory.
Umount/dev/cdrom
Uninstall CDROM.
Cd/tmp
Enter the TMP directory
Tar zxf vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz
Unzip the package and extract it by default to the Vmware-linux-tools directory (with the same name as the filename).
CD Vmware-linux-tools
Enter the unpacked directory
./install.pl (a slight discrepancy here)
Run the installation command.
When install prompts you to back up your previous profile, it is recommended to select "Y".

To share a folder under Windows:

In the case of starting the virtual machine Linux system, go to the VMware menu/vm/settings/options/shared folders

Create a shared folder and set the name under Linux so that you can see the folder/mnt/hgfs the Linux virtual machine.
