Tutorial on installing vm workstation and vm player on linux
Get the full tutorial.
The basic idea is simple, that article is for rpm based systems, but it shouldn't be that different for deb based systems like debian. First you install vm workstation, then you use that to install windows, then you install vm player, which lets you run the windows install. Since the workstation download only has a 30 day license for free, you'll have to do the os installs in that time, then you can use the free vm player to run the windows installs in linux. :: Quote :: VMware Player is free software that lets you evaluate new or pre-release software contained in virtual machines, without any installation or configuration hassles. It runs any virtual machine created by VMware Workstation, GSX Server or ESX Server. VMware Workstation is desktop virtualization software that runs multiple operating systems simultaneously on a single PC. It delivers excellent performance and advanced features such as memory optimization. We’ll use it to create a Windows XP virtual machine. This can be done with the Evaluation Version (30 day) and an evaluation license.Note that this article is about running google earth, but that doesn't interest me. Back to top |
