Install VMware10Tools in Ubuntu14 (2)

The Internet said that it has already patched the problem that shared directories cannot be displayed in the previous article. The patch address is "forbidden". If the df command is incorrect, you can see that/mnt/hgfs has been mounted successfully, and the vmhgfs service is normal (use the lsmod | grep vm command) to download VMware10.0.2. After the installation, you can't wait to open the virtual machine to install vmtools. After the installation is completed, you need to install patches before passing through the vmtools, however, an error is reported when the service is started.

Creating a new initrd boot image for the kernel. update-initramfs: Generating/boot/initrd. img-3.13.0-24-genericinitctl: Unknown task: vmware-tools-thinprintUnable to start services for VMware ToolsExecution aborted.

I checked some information about printing. I don't need the printing function anyway. Just delete it.

root@yufan-vm:/etc/init# rm vmware-tools-thinprint.conf

Restart the service
