In Windows, the virtual machine Vmware6.0 is installed with Linux (RedHat9). How does Linux under the Virtual Machine access the hard disk or file in windows?
1. Enter Linux as ROOT
2. log out to windows, click the install vmware tools sub-menu under the VM menu, confirm the installation (vmwarw.ls-6.0.3-80004.tar.gz and VMwareTools-6.0.3-80004.rpm files on the gnomedesktop)
3. Use the virtual optical drive to load the iso image. The path is C: Program FilesVMwareVMware WorkstationLinux. iso (of course, VM6.0 is installed on the default C drive)
4. Run mount-t iso9660/dev/cdrom/mnt in Linux to load the CDROM device. (I did not perform step 3 or step 4. Step 6 was also successful, it may be that CDROM is loaded by default), if you enter the/mnt directory, you will find a file: VMwareTools-6.0.3-80004.tar.gz, This is the Linux package of wmware tools,
5 cp/mnt/vmware-Linux-tools.tar.gz/tmp
Copy the package to the TMP directory of Linux.
6 umount/dev/cdrom uninstall CDROM.
7 cd/tmp Go To The TMP directory
8 tar zxf VMwareTools-6.0.3-80004.tar.gz decompress the package to the vmware-tools-distrib directory by default
9 cd vmware-tools-distrib enter the decompressed directory
10./run the installation command on the vmware-install.pl.
11 when the Virtual Machine Linux system is started, go to the VMWARE menu/vm/settings/options/shared folders to create a shared folder and set the name under Linux,
12 you can view the folder in/mnt/hgfs of the Linux Virtual Machine
