Pre-requisites
--------------
1) Linux emulation must be enabled:
# sysctl kern.emul.linux=1
2) procfs mounted with Linux compatibility:
# mkdir /proc
# mount_procfs -o linux /proc /proc
3) Update /emul/linux/dev:
# cd /emul/linux/dev
# ln -sf tty1 tty0
Configuration / Execution
-------------------------
1) Edit /etc/vmware/config to suit your needs.
2) Load the LKMs:
# vmware-modules load
3) Bring up the vmware network interface(s):
# vmnet-netifup -d /var/run/vmnet1.pid /dev/vmnet1 vmnet1
4) Configure the network interface(s) (must match /etc/vmware/config):
# ifconfig vmnet1 192.168.0.20
5) Run vmware-run:
# vmware
Deinstallation / Shutdown
-------------------------
1) Shutdown vmnet-netifup:
# kill -INT `cat /var/run/vmnet1.pid`
2) Unload LKMs:
# vmware-modules unload
Bugs / Known Issues
-------------------
1) Virtual machines can only use "host networking", and you must bridge
vmnet1 to a real interface for it to work.
2) vmware3 doesn't respect ${SYSCONFDIR} due to paths being hardcoded.
3) These instructions are not complete ;)
