centos6.5安装vmware tools&共享文件夹显示

1. 点击VM中“虚拟机(M)”->“设置”,将cd/dvd使用iso镜像文件清空

2. 创建挂载目录

 1 mkdir /media/cdrom
 2 mount /dev/cdrom  /media/cdrom
 3 
 4 安装虚拟机出现以下提示:
 5 mount:block device /dev/sr0 is write - protected , mounting read-only
 6 说明系统光驱加载成功,因为光驱是只读的,所以提示write-protected,mounting read-only,sr0是光驱设备名,
 7 通过以下命令:ll /dev/cdrom  
 8 看到
 9 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 Dec 25  2013 /dev/cdrom -> sr0
10 即/dev/cdcom是sr0的软链接
11 
12 改成
13 mount -o remount,rw /dev/sr0 /media

3. 拷贝解压,进入解压目录,执行,一路回车默认配置。

cd  media/
1 cp VMwareTools-9.6.2-1688356.tar.gz /root
2 
3 cd /root
4 tar -xzvf VMwareTools-9.6.2-1688356.tar.gz
5 
6 cd vmware-tools-distrib/
7 ./vmware-install.pl

4. windows主机上设置共享文件夹,在centos上对应是/mnt/hgfs/共享文件夹目录下

 5. centos配置信息

1 用 vmware-hgfsclient 命令可以看到你的共享文件夹目录
2 使用 mount  -t vmhgfs .host:/shareFolder /mnt/hgfs  命令挂载该共享文件夹。其中.host:/Documents是共享名,只需把Documents换成使用vmware-hgfsclient 命令得到的目录,/mnt/hgfs是挂载点
3 设置成开机挂载,用vi编缉/etc/fstab中的内容,在最下面增加一行内容为:
4 .host:/shareFolder     /mnt/hgfs       vmhgfs     defaults  0  0
