1、安装GCC开发工具
 
# Install software called by by VMware Tools
 
yum install gcc
 
2、安装内核文件
 
# Install kernel header files
 
yum install kernel-devel
 
3、检查内核文件的版本是否匹配，如果不匹配需要进行升级
 
# Check it matches the running kernel
 
uname -r # running kernel
 
rpm -q kernel-devel # installed kernel headers
 
4、第3不中如果不匹配，则需要升级内核文件，升级完后，重新启动系统
 
# It the two versions do not match, run
 
yum -y upgrade kernel kernel-devel
 
# then reboot (but only if they did not match).
 
5、查找内核文件的位置，安装VMware－tool工具时候需要（我装的时候，会自动查找到，不需要手工指定）
 
# Find out where the kernel headers are
 
ls -d /usr/src/kernels/$(uname -r)*/include
 
# You may need this later.
 
6、下载虚拟机工具安装包
 
即:VMware-tool安装包，并解压(具体就是在虚拟机工具栏上，点击"VM"->"Install VMware Tools"，会出现安装包，选择*.gz的文件，解压到一个目录下就可以)
 
以下是命令行中具体实现方法，我是在图形界面下实现的
 
# If you already have VMwareTools-5.5.2-29772.tar.gz
 
on disk, SKIP THIS STEP!
 
# Download VMware-workstation-5.5.2-29772.tar.gz from vmware.com
 
# Extract the VMware Tools iso from it
 
tar –strip-components=3 -zxvf VMware-workstation-5.5.2-29772.tar.gz /
 
vmware-distrib/lib/isoimages/linux.iso
 
# Create a temporary mount point
 
mkdir /mnt/vmtools-temp
 
# Mount the image
 
mount -o loop linux.iso /mnt/vmtools-temp
 
# Copy VMware Tools from the mount
 
cp /mnt/vmtools-temp/VMwareTools-5.5.2-29772.tar.gz /tmp/
 
# Unmount the image and tidy up
 
umount /mnt/vmtools-temp
 
rmdir /mnt/vmtools-temp
 
rm linux.iso
 
# Unpack VMware Tools to a temporary directory
 
cd /tmp/
 
tar zxvf VMwareTools-5.5.2-29772.tar.gz
 
7、进入解压目标目录，执行以下代码，一路回车按下来
 
cd /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib/
 
./vmware-install.pl
 
8、直到该步骤，拷贝粘贴第5步的路径，然后一直按回车，直到选择屏幕分辨率。
 
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
 
kernel? [/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-1.2849.fc6-i686/include]
 
 
我安照网上的安装步骤，做到这步后就安装上下去了。提示以下错误：
 
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
 
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] /usr/src/kernels/2.6.20-1.2952.fc6-i686/include
 
 
The directory of kernel headers (version @@VMWARE@@ UTS_RELEASE) does not match
 
your running kernel (version 2.6.20-1.2952.fc6). Even if the module were to
 
compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
