下载了VMWare Tool，放在C盘，请教大侠们怎样安装？

也就是怎么在VMWare下找到它？我没有软盘，但有U盘。

以下是VMWare Manu的描述：

Power on the virtual machine.
After the guest operating system has started, prepare your virtual machine to install VMware Tools.
Choose VM > Install VMware Tools.

The remaining steps take place inside the virtual machine.

Be sure the guest operating system is running in text mode. You cannot install VMware Tools while X is running.
As root (su -), mount the VMware Tools virtual CD-ROM image, change to a working directory (for example, /tmp), uncompress the installer, then unmount the CD-ROM image.
Note: You do not use an actual CD-ROM to install VMware Tools, nor do you need to download the CD-ROM image or burn a physical CD-ROM of this image file. The VMware Workstation software contains an ISO image that looks like a CD-ROM to your guest operating system. This image contains all the files needed to install VMware Tools in your guest operating system.

Note: Some Linux distributions use different device names or organize the
/dev directory differently. If your CD-ROM drive is not /dev/cdrom, modify the following commands to reflect the conventions used by your distribution.

mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
cd /tmp
tar zxf /mnt/vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz
umount /mnt

Run the VMware Tools installer.
cd vmware-tools-distrib
./vmware-install.pl

Log out of the root account.
exit

问题是：我的文件没放在光盘啊，怎么找呢？

这个软件不需要单独下载，你安装了VMware Workstation以后就已经在你的电脑里面了，只是你安装不同的子系统就需要单独安装，当你进入linux的时候选择菜单中VM--Install VMware Tools....  这个时候系统自动的帮你把vmtools  mount在你的cdrom中了，这个时候只需要按照你上面的步骤来就可以了。

我想请问一下，我先安装了linux然后安装的VM，要怎么设定才能在xp下模拟已经安装的red hat啊

楼上说的我不太明白，你本身是双系统linux+xp还是单系统linux？

柚柚疯嘎达

xp和red hat 9.0双系统

想问问楼主下载的地址是什么？我装的是RH9，没用VM，但看介绍用TOOLS后可以提高性能，因此想下个最新的，在官方网站上没找到。谢谢！

把虚拟机的硬盘设置为整个硬盘就可以了
