Daily Ubuntu Tips — Install VMware Workstation In Ubuntu
|
||
================================================================================
|
||
VMware Workstation is a Type-2 commercial virtualization software. It’s Type-2 because is runs on top of existing operation systems and the computer it’s running on is known as the host computer.
|
||
|
||
You can use VMware Workstation to run multiple guest machines simultaneously running individual operating systems on the host machine. A guest machine can either be a 32-bit or 64-bit of supported operating systems. VMware Workstation supports Windows, Mac OS X, Solaris and many others.
|
||
|
||
This brief tutorial is going to show you how to install VMware Workstation in Ubuntu.
|
||
|
||
Since this program is a commercial program, you must have a valid license to use it. You could also [download the 30-day free trial version][1] from the download page to test it. If you want to register it, get a license key and validate it.
|
||
|
||
To get started installing VMware Workstation in Ubuntu, first update Ubuntu. To do that, run the commands below.

|
||
|
||
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`
|
||
|
||
After that, download VMware Workstation. Next, change into the **~/Downloads** folder since Firefox saves files in the Downloads folder.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Next, run the commands below to extract the download package if it came in a .zip archive. If not, go to the next line.

|
||
|
||
Next, run the commands below to make the file executable.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Finally, run the commands below to begin the installation.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
You should be able to create many guest machines of all types, including Windows, Linux, Novell, Solaris and others.
