为了模拟网络环境，在vmware下装了FC3，两个问题。
1、没有安装X—windows，但启动和关闭很慢，有许多以前装独立系统时没见过的东西也启动。是否是虚拟机的关系。我的配置winxp，256内存，分给FC128M。
2、怎样在FC下安装vmwareTools？ 我在登陆后，点击菜单里，InstallVMTools,然后没有任何反应，只是菜单里的InstallVMTools变成了Cancel InstallVMTools！
期待你的回复！

VMware Tools for Linux Guests
You have two options for installing VMware Tools on a Linux guest.
•   Installing VMware Tools within X.

•   Installing VMware Tools from the Command Line.

Installing VMware Tools within X
You can install VMware Tools within X using the tar installer in a terminal window. See Installing VMware Tools from the Command Line.
To install VMware Tools from X with the RPM installer:
1. Choose VM > Install VMware Tools.
The guest operating system mounts the VMware Tools installation virtual CD.
2. Double-click the VMware Tools CD icon on the desktop.
3. Double-click the RPM installer in the root of the CDROM.
4. Enter the root password.
5. Click Continue.
The installer prepares the packages.
6. Click Continue when the installer presents a dialog saying Completed System Preparation.
A dialog appears for Updating system, with a progress bar. When the installer is done, VMware Tools are installed. There is no confirmation or finish button.
Note: Some guest operating systems require a reboot for full functionality.
Installing VMware Tools from the Command Line
The first steps are performed on the host, within Workstation menus:
1. Power on the virtual machine.
2. After the guest operating system has started, prepare your virtual machine to install VMware Tools.
Choose VM > Install VMware Tools.
The remaining steps take place inside the virtual machine.
3. As root (su -), mount the VMware Tools virtual CD-ROM image, change to a working directory (for example, /tmp), uncompress the installer, then unmount the CD-ROM image.
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /tmp
Note: You do not use an actual CD-ROM to install VMware Tools, nor do you need to download the CD-ROM image or burn a physical CD-ROM of this image file. The VMware Workstation application includes an ISO image that looks like a CD-ROM to your guest operating system. This image contains all the files needed to install VMware Tools in your guest operating system.
Note: If you have a previous installation, delete the previous vmware-distrib directory before installing. The default location of this directory is /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib
Note: Some Linux distributions use different device names or organize the /dev directory differently. If your CD-ROM drive is not /dev/cdrom or if the mount point for a CD-ROM is not /mnt/cdrom, you must modify the following commands to reflect the conventions used by your distribution.
  •   Using the tar installer:

tar zxf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-5.0.0-<xxxx>.tar.gz
umount /dev/cdrom
Continue with step 4.

  &#8226;   Using the RPM installer:

rpm -Uhv /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-5.0.0-<xxxx>.i386.rpm
umount /dev/cdrom
Where <xxxx> is the build/revision number of the VMware Workstation release.
Note: If you attempt to install a tar installation over an rpm installation-or the reverse-the installer detects the previous installation and must convert the installer database format before continuing.
4. Run the VMware Tools installer:
  &#8226;   Using the tar VMware tools installer

cd vmware-tools-distrib
./vmware-install.pl
Respond to the questions the installer displays on the screen. Press Enter to accept the default value.

Note: Be sure to respond yes when the installer offers to run the configuration program.
Continue with step 5.

  &#8226;   Using the RPM VMware tools installer:

vmware-config-tools.pl
Respond to the questions the installer displays on the screen. Press Enter to accept the default value.

Note: Be sure to respond yes when the installer offers to run the configuration program.
5. Log out of the root account.
exit
6. Start X and your graphical environment.
7. In an X terminal, launch the VMware Tools background application.
vmware-toolbox &
Note: You may run VMware Tools as root or as a normal user. To shrink virtual disks, you must run VMware Tools as root (su -).
Starting VMware Tools Automatically
You may find it helpful to configure your guest operating system so VMware Tools starts when you start your X server. The steps for doing so vary depending on your Linux distribution and your desktop environment. Check your operating system documentation for the appropriate steps to take.
For example, in a Red Hat Linux 7.1 guest using GNOME, follow these steps.
1. Open the Startup Programs panel in the GNOME Control Center.
Main Menu (click the foot icon in the lower left corner of the screen) > Programs > Settings > Session > Startup Programs
2. Click Add.
3. In the Startup Command field, enter vmware-toolbox.
4. Click OK, click OK again, then close the GNOME Control Center.
The next time you start X, VMware Tools starts automatically.
Uninstalling VMware Tools
If you need to remove VMware Tools from your Linux guest operating system, log on as root (su -) and run the following command:
&#8226;   Uninstall VMware Tools from tar install:

vmware-uninstall-tools.pl
&#8226;   Uninstall VMware Tools from RPM install:

rpm -e VMwareTools

vmware是什么?有什么用途?什么水平的人适用?请楼主回答!
如果你都能回答上来,你是高手,当然,你也不会问怎么菜的问题!
如果你回答不上来,建议你别玩vm

vm非常吃内存，一般建议要有512M以上的内存，才可能比较顺畅地运行linux。建议楼主要么装备1G的内存，要么还是直接在硬盘上安装linux。FC3至少需要256M以上的内存才能运行顺畅。

如果问题很菜，只能说抱歉，我会努力修炼内功。
不过十分感谢斑竹和uniqueman的回复。尤其是uniqueman，十分细致。
多谢！
