Install vmware8 in arch Linux

Easy to install

Download the VMware installation package, and then

# Chmod + x vmware-xxxx

#./Vmware-xxxx

Run the installer.

Because arch does not have the configuration file of RC *. D, a prompt will be prompted during installation. Just click OK. After installation, the startup encountered a problem. It turned out that it had installed the control script in/etc/init. d, but found it in rc. d, directly:

# Cp/etc/init. d/vmware/etc/rc. d/

Just copy it.

Then, when VMware is started, the module will be automatically compiled. If no error is reported, the installation is successful.

Add VMware to the RC. config configuration file to enable it to start automatically when it is started. Otherwise, enter/etc/rc. d/vmware start every time it is started.
