I'm trying to install VMware Tools on a Mac on my 5.5 EsXi box.

I was also going to take the vmdk to another platform and see if any difference (doubt it will be)Īny platform with not brand hardware Apple is a direct violation of the SLA products and may not be discussed in these forums! I don't have the time now to analyze the two occurrences, one made appropriately and the other using pacifists to see if there is in fact no difference. all seem to work fine, however it was simply intended as a test and not a recommended method to install VMware Tools and I don't know if it is essentially a complete installation. I tested VMware shared folders, copy & paste, drag & drop, and change the resolution of the screen. He basically just moved the files in places and then after that I restarted the computer virtual VMware Tools seem to work. I just tested this on a clean build and with the help of pacifists opened the VMware Tools.pkg (Install VMware Tools.app/Contents/Resources/VMware Tools.pkg) in the bundle 'Install VMware Tools.app' on darwin.iso (VMware Tools for OS X) and 'Selected files.pkg content' then clicked on install and check 'use administrator privileges '. Still confident enough, I can work around the issue of the installer. don't know if I can run alternate and no package installer idea what files are changed by install VMware Tools. This straight out of the iso, but not being is not a Mac OSX expert. I wonder if there is another way to install VMware Tools manually? I can see the directory structure exposed within the darwin.iso but don't know if I can cp I have mentioned that the drive internal vs external because VMware Fusion before 6.0.2 has not created a good installer for OS X 10.9 Mavericks nor was it settled the case, and the fact that it was not properly installed may have been a contributing factor to the VMware Tools install problem not necessarily imply that the disk shows as external! In addition, it turns out that the 'internal' or 'removable' made no difference that I was able to move the vmdk from SATA, SCSI (appears inside the system) but that made no difference either but has been tested When clean install OS X 10.9 Mavericks under VMware Fusion 6.0.2 VMware Tools are not automatically installed!
