FAQs about redhat and Fedora installation in virtual machines

This article is provided by workpartyeverywhere. Symptom 1: An error is reported when the partition is required. The valid device for creating a file system is not found. The reason is that the default hard disk of the VM is a scsi hard disk. We can see from the Internet that the scsi hard disk requires a dedicated driver, which is included in the windows system, but not in readhat, so it is hard to install it. However, I did not encounter this problem when installing 9.0, but it appeared after the RedHat12 in iseise5.

Symptom 1: An error is reported when the partition is required. The valid device for creating a file system is not found.

The reason is that the default hard disk of the VM is a scsi hard disk. We can see from the Internet that the scsi hard disk requires a dedicated driver, which is included in the windows system, but not read hat, so it is hard to install it. However, I did not encounter this problem when installing 9.0, But it encountered a problem when enterprise 5 called RedHat 12. The same is true for Fedora.

Solution: Delete the original scsi hard disk and create an IDE hard disk.

VM-> settings click "Hard Disk (SCSI 0: 0)" --> there is a "Remove" under this box. Click this to delete it. Then add a new hard disk ticket

Click "Add" on the left of "Remove", next, "Hard Disk", Create a new vitual disk, and next, select IDE. Then press enter and you will see a Hard Disk (IDE 0: 0) at the bottom of the box.

Then proceed to redhat installation.

Symptom 2: no Internet access

Cause: No network connection settings are available for virtual machines.

Solution: 1. VM-> settings click ethernet and select NAT: Used to share the host's IP address. Then enter the VM. System Tools --> --〉

In the Internet Configuration Wizard, set the ip address under the virtual machine to the ip address under the Local Machine with the same range.

2. VM-> settings click ethernet and select Bridged: connected directly to the physical network. In this case, you only need to enable all the VMware Network Adapter VMnet on the local machine. (Both methods are for LAN)
