Someone gave me a VMWare Player instance Linux. I couldn’t run it on my own machine so I had to run it on my VMWare ESX Server the only solution i had was to run it on an instance on that machine. it wont let me do it unless i had some kind of modifications. so to solve that problem i came up with the following after searching google.

They are:

Under Options: Advanced -> General -> Configuration Parameters (button), I made the following changes:

(change) deploymentPlatform from “windows” to “vmkernel”
(add) monitor_control.vt32 = “TRUE”
(add) monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = “TRUE”
