Create a new Linux system virtual machine using VMware

We divide it into two steps, 1: Create a new virtual machine; 2: Install the red Hat enterprse Linux 6 operating system

1. First we create a new virtual machine, do not install the operating system, and then install the Linux system later.

The new virtual machine steps are as follows:

Open the VMware software, click on the "file (F)" –> in the menu bar and select "New Virtual Machine (N)", such as 1, (or directly click on the "+" sign in the image)
