General Installation Notes

Be sure to read General Guidelines for All VMware Products on page 13 as well as this

guide to installing your specific guest operating system.

The easiest method of installing Red Hat Linux 7.2 in a virtual machine is to use the

standard Red Hat distribution CD. The notes below describe an installation using the

standard distribution CD; however, installing Red Hat Linux 7.2 via the boot floppy/

network method is supported as well. If your VMware product supports it, you may

also install from a PXE server.

Before installing the operating system, be sure that you have already created and

configured a new virtual machine.

Note: You should not run the X server that is installed when you set up Red Hat

Linux 7.2. Instead, to get an accelerated SVGA X server running inside the virtual

machine, you should install the VMware Tools package immediately after installing

Red Hat Linux 7.2.

Installation Steps

1. Insert the Red Hat Linux 7.2 CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive.

2. Power on the virtual machine to start installing Red Hat Linux 7.2.
