想玩Linux卻沒有多的計算機或多的硬盤空間嗎？還是怕弄壞了原有的數(shù)據(jù)？VMWare可以讓你在Windows上玩Linux喔！介紹一下VMware，簡單的說，他可以在你現(xiàn)有的操作系統(tǒng)上"再多安裝"其它操作系統(tǒng)，并且任你決定這個"新"系統(tǒng)所使用的內存大小、硬盤容量大小，你可以像使用一臺普通計算機一樣對他做格式化、安裝操作系統(tǒng)等等而不會對你的原系統(tǒng)產(chǎn)生任何影響，其實還有另一套由PC Connectix所出的 Virual PC，而VMWare目前最新版本4.x，你可以到http://www.vmware.com/vmwarestore/newstore/download_login.jsp取得試用，從這邊來需要先注冊，要填一堆有的沒有的，后面是目前最新版的載點，未注冊版提供三十天的試用期，只需在要輸入序號那頁按"Skip"即可，當然，有注冊機可以用，但在這邊我就不提供了。

安裝過程就不啰說了...讓我們來看看主畫面



在上面的畫面顯示出有兩個虛擬的操作系統(tǒng)，一個是Linux另一個是Windows ME，而菜單左下方有關機、暫停、及開機的按鈕，你可以編輯每個虛擬操作系統(tǒng)的"硬件"設定在中間的"Edit virtual machine settings"，右邊的Summary則是目前的硬件狀態(tài)。

增加一臺計算機

在Favorites的范圍內按下鼠標右鍵會出現(xiàn)一個菜單，其中有個叫做New Virtual Machine..，然后～（中間跳過..）就看到下面的畫面


選擇一個你想安裝的系統(tǒng)，VMWare會依據(jù)你所選的調整系統(tǒng)給予的資源。


這個沒什么好講的..改名字..改放的目錄....


網(wǎng)絡組態(tài)設定，選擇你要使用『Bridged』或是『NAT』簡單的說，Bridged會仿真出一張實體網(wǎng)卡，而NAT則是會透過主機本身聯(lián)機至網(wǎng)絡，主機扮演著類似IP分享器的角色。

好了之后你就會在主畫面里看到剛剛新增的計算機啰，接下來簡單介紹一下設定吧。


左邊是硬件類別，右邊則是可調整的選項，或你可以按Add加入一個新的硬件，預設的硬盤最大為4GB，至于光驅你可以選擇使用實體光驅或者是掛上ISO檔，其它的就不介紹了。




連BIOS都有了！！基本上剛設定好一個組態(tài)時跟剛裝好一臺新計算機時是沒兩樣的，硬盤空的未分割等...跑個安裝Linux吧！在BIOS中將BOOT的順序調整為CD-ROM最先，將安裝光盤放入光驅（預設光驅使用實體光盤），然后開機。


可愛的安裝畫面出來了！



安裝后續(xù)處理
想一下我們剛灌好一個新操作系統(tǒng)后要干嘛，安裝驅動程序嘛！VMWare也是一樣，當我們安裝完后需要安裝一個叫"VMWare Tools"的東西
官方對VMWare Tools的解說：
It is very important that you install VMware Tools in the guest operating system.
With the VMware Tools SVGA driver installed, Workstation supports significantly faster graphics performance.
The VMware Tools package provides support required for shared folders and for drag and drop operations.
Other tools in the package support time synchronization between host and guest, automatic grabbing and releasing of the mouse cursor, copying and pasting between guest and host, and improved mouse performance in some guest operating systems.
The installers for VMware Tools for Windows, Linux and FreeBSD guest operating systems are built into VMware Workstation as ISO image files. (An ISO image file looks like a CD-ROM to your guest operating system and even appears as a CD-ROM in Windows Explorer. 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.)
VMware Tools for Windows supports Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 guest operating systems.
在Windows系列中，只需在進入操作系統(tǒng)后選擇"File-Install VMWare Tools..."，然后去查看你的光驅，執(zhí)行里面的安裝程序即可，而Linux可以下面的方式來進行。
擷取自說明
VMware Tools for Linux Guests
Power on the virtual machine.
After the guest operating system has started, prepare your virtual machine to install VMware Tools.
Choose File >; 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 -t iso9660 /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
Start X and your graphical environment.
In an X terminal, launch the VMware Tools background application.
vmware-toolbox &
Note: You may run VMware Tools as root or as a normal user. To shrink virtual disks, you must run VMware Tools as root (su -).
　
差不多了，就到這邊吧，花了大概一個小時..我要去吃晚飯了 ：）！Bye！

我在xp下安裝了vmware, 并加了一個linux虛擬機。
如何實現(xiàn)xp與linux的通信呢？
我希望通過硬盤往linux里傳些數(shù)據(jù)文件。
多謝
