Getting started with Linux: Installing VMware 10 on CentOS 7

Install VMware 10.0.3 on CentOS 7. Let me introduce my experience. Generally, this version does not work on CentOS 7 because it can only run on a lower kernel version 3.10.

First, download and install it in normal mode (no problem ). The only problem was when we ran the VMware program later.
