Centos6.9 minimal Vmtools installation

1. Click on the virtual machine, and then install VMtools (be sure to connect the network when installing, if you forget, refer to my Centos7 installation blog)

2. Execute the following command:

sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom/
cp /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-10.0.0-2977863.tar.gz /tmp/
tar -zxvf VMwareTools-10.0.0-2977863.tar.gz

cd vmware-tools-distrib/

sudo ./vmware-install.pl

Error: because the perl file is missing

sudo yum install perl //download

After the download is complete, execute sudo ./vmware-install.pl

Then press Enter all the way. After the installation is complete, cancel the mount.

You can write these commands into a script, and then execute the script, you don't need to type commands again.
