Say "No" to VMware's automatic Linux installation "!

When we use VMware to install a virtual machine, after the configuration is complete, VMWare always automatically installs the system for us and cannot perform some manual customized operations. The most typical is when installing the Linux system, you cannot choose to install the Chinese environment. You can directly install the default English environment. How can we disable automatic system installation when installing virtual machines Through vmware? Here we will introduce two solutions. Please refer to the following article.

Solution 1

Select Step 1 custom (advanced) when creating a VM, and then select the type of the VM

In step 3, select the last radio button (I will intall the operation system later)

After the creation is complete, right-click the created virtual machine and select "setting... ", set the ISO image file for the operating system installation package on the CD/DVD tab (hardware) in the pop-up box.

Solution 2 is automatically installed by default when centos, RedHat, Ubuntu, and other Linux systems are installed in Versions later than vmware6.5.2. In this way, we cannot assign mount points to them and perform other configurations. To solve this problem, you only need to set the system installation environment in VMware, do not check "create virtual machine after power on", then enter the virtual system storage directory, delete "autoinst. ISO file. This file is generated in the system storage directory you specified after you configure the installation environment in the virtual machine. The VM's virtual optical drive will automatically load this ISO file, which will guide the installation of RedHat. This solution reference from: http://www.2cto.com/ OS /201202/119107.html
