Precautions for installing Fedora 18 on Vmware

In middle January 2013, the multi-pass Fedora 18 was finally released. This article describes the problems and solutions for the author to install Fedora 18 in VMware, hope to help you.

1. The installation disk of Fedora 18 cannot be started.

Details:

Here, mount:/dev/sr1 is write-protected and mouting read-only. I don't know what the problem is, from the general meaning, it may be caused by the unavailability of the optical drive. However, the reason why the system is written into the system disk may be due to a problem with the recommended installation of Fedora. Therefore, virtualization is deleted and re-configured.

Select to create a virtual hard disk, and then install the operating system. Then load the CD to skip the simple installation. Therefore, the boot of the installation disk was successfully completed.

2. The Fedora desktop cannot be displayed after installation.

After the system is installed, you will find that you cannot perform Fedora desktop. There will always be only one wallpaper on the screen, and no login box will pop up. After searching online for a long time, I finally found the cause of the problem ~ 3D graphics acceleration! The solution is actually very simple. You only need to disable the Virtual Machine and edit the virtual machine settings. You can remove the option of 3D graphics acceleration in the display settings ~

At this point, all installation is complete. If you need to install it, we hope this article will be useful to you ~
