Mutual file transfer between Linux and Windows (VMWare), linuxvmware

There are many ways to transfer files between a virtual machine without a Desktop Linux and a Windows host. Now we will first talk about a way to share folders. Other methods will be added later.

1. Background

1) Virtual Machine System: VMWare has no Desktop Linux

2) Physical Machine System: Win 7

3) Shared Folder: D: \ Virtual Machines \ shared_vm3 of the Physical Machine

Requirements: mutual transfer of Linux and Windows files

Note: To share linux and windows files through shared folders, you must install VMWare-tools, the installation of this tool can refer to the http://www.cnblogs.com/ddbear/p/6857199.html

 

2. Operation

1) Windows: create a shared folder D: \ Virtual Machines \ shared_vm3

2) Virtual Machine linux: add shared folders

Choose Virtual Machine VM_3 --> right-click --> set

Select option --> shared folder --> always enable --> Add

Click next after the setup wizard appears.

Browse the windows folder. Select D: \ Virtual Machines \ shared_vm3 --> next.

Note: The name corresponds to the folder name displayed in Linux.

Enable this sharing by default. Click Finish.

Click OK

Note: You need to check the value in the red box. By default, the value is checked.

3) Virtual Machine linux: Start Virtual Machine VM_3

Choose VM_3 --> start this VM

4) Virtual Machine linux: Mount Shared Folders

# Cd/mnt

# Mkdir hgfs

Note: To share linux and windows files through shared folders, you must install VMWare-tools, the installation of this tool can refer to the http://www.cnblogs.com/ddbear/p/6857199.html

After installing VMWare-tools, run the following command:

#/Usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl

Then press enter until installation is complete.

　　

The installation is complete.

5) Virtual Machine linux: restart the Virtual Machine

# Reboot
