Note: I have tested this on VMWare workstation 7.0 and Ubuntu 9.10, 10.04, 10.10, 11.04 and 11.10 is also works on Lubuntu and Xubuntu. Once you have Ubuntu server installed run the following commands.
#Change to super user sudo su #Update your sources apt-get update #Upgrade your installed packages and force kernel upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade ### # Now reboot ### reboot #back to super user sudo su #Install Build tools apt-get install linux-headers-server build-essential ### # Now you are ready to install VMWare tools. ### #Mount the VMWare Tools CD ISO (make sure you have told VMWare you want to install tools) mkdir /mnt/cdrom mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom #Copy VMware Tools cp /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-x.x.x-xxxxx.tar.gz /tmp #Go tmp cd /tmp #Extract tar -zxf VMwareTools-x.x.x-xxxxx.tar.gz #Change to extracted directory cd vmware-tools-distrib #Start the installer ./vmware-install.pl -d
The default settings have always worked for me (within a vm) so I use the -d option. If you need a different configuration don't use the -d.
Using Shared folders
After a reboot you can use tools such as Shared folders. I like to sym link my shared folders to my home directory as I tend to forget the mount directory (hgfs) location.
#sym link and name vmSharedFolder ln -s /mnt/hgfs/ ~/vmSharedFolder
Please note that if you use VMWare work station you can find all this in the help. When I wrote this I was using player, which at the time didn't include this in the help.
