The default directory would be:
Choose a proper location, if you want.
Once done, the arrow keys may not work (not the ones in number pad):
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential xinetd
cd /Directory_downloaded_files
tar xvfz VMware-server-*.tar.gz cd vmware-server-distrib sudo ./vmware-install.pl
Choose a proper location, if you want.
In which directory do you want to keep your virtual machine files? [/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines]
I know there are a number of Closed threads that mention how to fix this. And maybe I missed the obvious. But to save others some time. 1. All the threads say to edit /etc/vmware/config 2. And some do say to edit ~/.vmare/config #2 is in your home folder. #1 is what I did and it did not work. I see now why it did not work, which was obvious, the /etc/vmware/config was on the server and I think some of these threads where people using vmware on their desktop. ??? So #2 worked right away by 1. nano .vmware/config It may not exist 2. xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true And start up the vmware machine and it all should work.http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1056799

- 우선 vmware-vdiskmanager의 위치를 확인한다.
which vmware-vdiskmanger /usr/bin/vmware-vdiskmanager
- su 상태에서 작업하도록 한다. 혹은 sudo를 이용하여 작업해도 무관함.
su

The selected operation can only be executed on a disk with no snapshots.***
