Linux(ubuntu 24.04)에 VMware workstation pro 설치하기

1. VMware Workstation Pro(리눅스 버전)를 다운로드

VMware 다운로드 링크(Broadcom) : https://www.vmware.com/products/desktop-hypervisor/workstation-and-fusion

2. 설치 준비 (Ubuntu/Debian): 설치 전 종속성 해결을 위해 터미널에서 다음 명령어를 실행

sudo apt update

sudo apt install build-essential

3. 설치 명령어: 다운로드한 파일이 있는 폴더에서 실행 권한을 부여하고 설치

chmod +x VMware-Workstation-*.bundle

sudo ./VMware-Workstation-*.bundle



4. unable to install all modules~ 설치오류 나올 경우

git clone https://github.com/Technogeezer50/vmware-host-modules.git

cd vmware-host-modules

# Check out the latest commit to the workstation-17.6.4 branch

git checkout workstation-17.6.4

# Now you can go ahead and make the modules

make

# If module compilation is successful, install the new modules

sudo make install

sudo systemctl stop vmware

sudo systemctl start vmware

# The modules should now be installed and working,.

# It's up to you at this point if you want to tar up the updated module sources and copy them to

# the /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source directory per the instructions in the INSTALL file so that Workstation can

# recompile them for you the next time the kernel changes. If you don't do this, you will need to run the following each time

# the kernel is updated:

make clean

make

sudo make install

sudo systemctl stop vmware

sudo systemctl start vmware
