在 VMware Player 裡安裝自己想要的作業系統

參考：VMware Player with your own Ubuntu installation

主要步驟如下：

1. 取得作業系統映像檔，如：FC-6-i386-DVD.iso。

2. 使用 qemu 提供的工具來建立所需要用到的 virtual disk，或是直接下載作者提供的 vmdk 檔案（有各式 size）。
3. 依據自己的需求修改 vmx file，如 fedora.vmx：

config.version = "8"
virtualHW.version = "3"
ide0:0.present = "TRUE"
ide0:0.filename = "5g.vmdk"
memsize = "256"
MemAllowAutoScaleDown = "FALSE"
ide1:0.present = "TRUE"

#ide1:0.fileName = "auto detect"
#ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-raw"

ide1:0.fileName = "D:\Linux_Distro_Images\Fedora\FC-6-i386-DVD.iso"
ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-image"

ide1:0.autodetect = "TRUE"
floppy0.present = "FALSE"
ethernet0.present = "TRUE"
usb.present = "FALSE"
sound.present = "FALSE"
sound.virtualDev = "es1371"
displayName = "Fedora"
guestOS = "Ubuntu"
nvram = "Ubuntu.nvram"
MemTrimRate = "-1"

ide0:0.redo = ""
ethernet0.addressType = "generated"
uuid.location = "56 4d 5c cc 3d 4a 43 29-55 89 5c 28 1e 7e 06 58"
uuid.bios = "56 4d 5c cc 3d 4a 43 29-55 89 5c 28 1e 7e 06 58"
ethernet0.generatedAddress = "00:0c:29:7e:06:58"
ethernet0.generatedAddressOffset = "0"

tools.syncTime = "TRUE"
ide1:0.startConnected = "TRUE"

uuid.action = "create"

checkpoint.vmState = ""

ethernet0.connectionType = "nat

4. 直接點擊 fedora.vmx file，VMware Player 便會自動執行，開始安裝 Fedora。
