How to install VMWare Server on Ubuntu Feisty Fawn

by Kyle on May 2nd, 2007

The free (closed source) VMWare Server can be installed in a few short steps. Howtoforge does an excellent job of demonstrating how to install the application from the command line. We’ve covered virtualizing Linux on other operating systems several times before. However, this is the opposite — virtualizing other OSes in Linux. If this is too difficult for you, go ahead and install VMWare Player through Automatix.

This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions about how to install the free VMware Server on an Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) system. With VMware Server you can create and run guest operating systems (”virtual machines”) such as Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, etc. under a host operating system. This has the benefit that you can run multiple operating systems on the same hardware which saves a lot of money, and you can move virtual machines from one VMware Server to the next one (or to a system that has the VMware Player which is also free).
