Choosing and Installing Guest Operating Systems

LAN that provides DHCP support, then in the Network Configuration screen, you

may select the option Use bootp/dhcp. If you prefer, you may also set the

networking parameters manually. If you are using the vmxnet network adapter

in your virtual machine, use the network configuration tools in Red Hat

Enterprise Linux 3.0 to configure your network connection after you finish

installing the guest operating system.

This completes basic installation of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 guest operating

system.

VMware Tools

Be sure to install VMware Tools in your guest operating system. For details, see the

manual for your VMware product or follow the appropriate link in the knowledge base

article at www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=340.

Do not start the X server in the guest operating system until you install VMware Tools.

Enabling Sound After Installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0

VMware GSX Server: The sound device is disabled by default and must be enabled

with the virtual machine control panel (VM > Settings) after the operating system has

been installed. To set up the virtual machine to play sound, see Configuring Sound in

the GSX Server documentation.

Known Issues

Guest Screen Saver

VMware GSX Server: On a Linux host with an XFree86 3.x X server, it is best not to run

a screen saver in the guest operating system. Guest screen savers that demand a lot of

processing power can cause the X server on the host to freeze.

Migration to a Different Processor

VMware GSX Server: VMware recommends you do not migrate a Red Hat Enterprise

Linux 3.0 virtual machine between hosts when one host is running on an AMD

processor and the other is running on an Intel processor.

During installation, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 chooses a kernel that is optimized for

the specific processor on which it is running. The kernel may contain instructions that

are available only on that processor. These instructions can have adverse effects when

run on a host with the wrong type of processor.

Thus, a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 virtual machine created on a host with an AMD

processor may not work if migrated to a host with an Intel processor. The reverse is
