Install Fedora 18 on the vmwarevm to the mobile hard drive

This method on the Internet is a headache for new users. We try to use a simple method to help new users install the system...

You can use a USB flash drive or a CD to burn an image and then start and install it on a mobile hard disk. However, the virtual machine installation method is probably the simplest.

Let me briefly describe the following steps:

1. Open VMware and create a new virtual machine. The key is to delete the hard disk after it is created (do not delete it, to avoid confusion among new users ). Select the downloaded ISO ora 18 ISO file for the optical drive.

2. Connect the mobile hard disk to your computer, select a partition to delete it, or compress it into a partition. We recommend over 30 GB. In short, an unused partition is required for installation. Remove the mobile hard disk. This step is critical. Do not connect to your computer first.

3. Select the optical drive as the downloaded ISO file to open the Virtual Machine. Click the mouse in the Virtual Machine and select install system. At this time, the mobile hard disk is linked to the computer, the virtual opportunity to identify and install the driver. In this way, the installation program of fedora can find the memory, and there is only one memory on the mobile hard disk. There is no difference between the rest and hard disk installation. If you have experience in partitioning, you can directly use the default settings without experience.

4. The installation options are user-friendly. If you delete a zone, the installer automatically selects unused partitions, Which is intelligent.

PS: This method is applicable to boot tools without a USB flash drive, but the premise is VMware. The method is simple, but clever!
