Installing error
Hi,
Thanks for your help. I really appreciate that. I downloaded and tried to install vmware server on my SuSe 10.0. When I run the command like this
#vmware-config.pl
It runs and asks for several locations, and then error out with this. The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory
I don't know what to do. I search around and people on the Internet are saying make sure I have the directory /usr/src/linux. My machine doesn't have that directory even I already updated all the patches.
cn-linux1:~ # cd /usr/src
cn-linux1:/usr/src # ls
. kernel-modules simplelinuxbkup-0.3.1-i386.tar.gz
.. linux-2.6.13-15.15-obj VMware-server-1.0.3-44356.i386.rpm
httpd-2.2.4 packages
httpd-2.2.4.tar.gz SimpleBackup
cn-linux1:/usr/src #
See? It doesn't have a directory called linux/include, and that's why it can't find the location which it's looking for.
Here is the prerequisites of vmware server on my machine.
cn-linux1:~ # rpm -qa kernel* gcc* make
kernel-smp-2.6.13-15.15
gcc-c++-4.0.2_20050901-3
make-3.80-188
gcc-4.0.2_20050901-3
kernel-update-tool-0.9-10
kernel-smp-nongpl-2.6.13-15.15
cn-linux1:~ #
I got gcc, gcc-c++, make, and kernel source, and they all are matching. I am stuck now. I really want to run vmware server so that I can install windows xp/server 2003 as my guest OSes. If anyone in here already did this on SuSe, please hook me up. Thank you so much.
