WINDOWS10 installing Linux virtual machines with wmware detailed steps

First, installation environment

WINDOWS10 Operating System Physical machine
VMware Workstation software (available for download online)
CentOS6.9 image File (other versions are similar, here take CentOS6.9 as an example)
Cnetos6.9 image file address https://pan.baidu.com/s/1hsZUB9y

Second, the installation of virtual machines

1. Open VMware Workstation Click to create a new virtual machine

2. Select the type of installation here we choose Custom, the typical virtual machine is the system default options we can not change, of course, if you just to create a virtual machine does not do other uses to choose the typical, here we mainly explain the custom virtual machine installation

3. Compatibility is based on your computer configuration, this is the next step we can do.

4. Install the operating system here we choose to install the system later

5. Client system we choose the Linux version here to choose CentOS 64-bit

6. Virtual name Location This is what you can count on.

7. Processor this is based on your computer, if your computer is eight-core, you can choose 2-core or 4-core if your processor is quad-core you can choose 1 or 2 cores, as long as you do not exceed your computer's own core count on line, more than your virtual machine may not start up, here I choose 2 Core

8. Virtual machine Memory This is also based on your computer's own situation to choose your computer if you have 8G of memory you can choose 2G or 4G if your computer 4G memory to choose 1G or 2G, we'd better follow the recommendation, if the virtual machine memory is too high will affect your computer fluency, because my computer is 4G memory so here I choose 1G

9. Network connection If we need a virtual machine to go online, we will choose bridging network or NET mode, here we choose to use Bridge Network

10.I/O Controller Type We chose to recommend it.

11. Disk type We also choose to recommend

12. Select disk, we choose to create a new disk

13. Disk size We can give a larger space, this is just the space we given, not the real space of the client, to the back when we partition it is its true size, so do not worry about their own disk space, of course, not too small, too small system can not be installed, Here I assign 200G to it and store it as a single file.

14. Storage disk Location This can be your own choice

15. Click here to customize your hardware

16. Click Add

17. Select a network adapter

18. Here we choose only the host mode, this is in order to later in the absence of the network can also be able to make their own computer between the virtual machine can be connected to each other

19. Check the CD/DVD to find your own downloaded iOS image file

20. We are back here to finish, so that we have a virtual machine built, and then we are installed system

Third, Linux system installation

1. Click to open this virtual machine

2. Select the first installation system

3. In this we choose skip Skip

4. Click Next

5. Language selection We choose Chinese, of course, you can also choose English, but Chinese will cause some garbled system, here we mainly explain the English system installation method

6. Keyboard selection Our country is generally American keyboard so we also choose 中文版

7. Install the media, if you install to the local hard drive Select the first, if you installed on the mobile hard disk choose the second one, because I was installed in the local hard drive, so here I choose the first one


8. Whether to ignore all the data, because we are the newly installed system so we choose Yes

9. Name the computer, this can be casually named, but it is best not to use Chinese, sometimes the system will not recognize, here I choose the default name


10. Time zone selection, we choose Asia/shanghai

11. Set a password for your root user, which is the Super administrator

12. If your command is too simple, he will prompt you to command too simple whether or not to continue to use, we at this time choose using anyway

13. To disk partition Here we choose the last one, because we have already given the disk 200G if you choose the first system will divide this 200G, if you do not have enough disk space, the system fails to load, so in order to make better use of space we choose the last manual partition

14. We Choose Create

15. Continue to select Create Creation partition

16. First partition we mount it to/directory, assign it 20G space and force it to be the primary partition

17. Then we continue to create a second partition, this time we'll mount it to/boot.
As a boot partition, the boot partition is not too big, here we give it 200M


18. Then we can create a larger partition for other purposes, to do an experiment to save files or something, where I created a/other directory also gave it a 20G

19. Then we create a swap partition that frees up a portion of the physical memory to be used by the currently running program when the system's physical memory is not enough. So now we don't have to divide too much space, swap partitions to the back if not enough can also be added, so we first divide 4 G
20. After the split we click Next

21. Here we choose Format, format the partition

22. Choose write changes to disk here to write the partition data to the hard disk.

23. Set the boot loader location and leave the default settings. (You need to change this setpoint when installing the system from a USB stick.)

24. Select the software that needs to be installed, here we select the first desktop, so that the other service software installation package can be installed in the subsequent manual installation, (if you want to install a faster point can also choose minimal)

25. Start the installation and wait for the load to finish.

26. When the installation is complete, click Reboot

27. Here the Linux system is basically installed, the first two points ForWord on the line, to here can create ordinary users, they can be counted to create, you can skip, I did not create skipped

28. You can adjust the time here.

29. Click Finish.

30. Then the Linux virtual machine is created, and the password of the root account can be entered directly.
