Recently installed a ubuntu-10.04.4-server on VMware6.5.1, encountered a lot of problems in this record, the system installation process is smooth, the system can also run normally, and then need to transfer files to the virtual system, VMware Tools can be installed on the Internet through file sharing. After installation, the vmhgfs module (which is a shared file module) and several other modules fail to be compiled, report:
Tmp/vmware-config1/vmhgfs-only/compat_wait.h: 78: error: conflicting types for 'Poll _ initwait 'causes unable to build the vmhgfs,/mnt/hgfs/folder to be empty, the shared folder cannot be seen, and the problem cannot be solved by trying multiple methods on the Internet during this period. If you run compat_wait.h to change the source file, you still cannot, the root cause of the problem is that the Linux kernel version and the ubuntu-10.04.4-server (Linux 2.26.32-38) system kernel version is not www.2cto.com consistent, and later can not change a high version of the Virtual Machine VMware 7.1.0, compiled successfully
The above is not a good solution, but a path for problematic children's shoes, at least file sharing, ls/mnt/hgfs is not empty; for a later version of VMware, there is no need to waste too much time on it. Our goal is to transfer files. During this period, we also tried to use ftp to transfer files, set the network of the Virtual Machine (NAT by default, and Bridge mode). You can connect to the LAN and download what you need from the ftp Server;
