After rerunning vmware-config.pl vmware ran again. However I think there may be a conflict between vmware and Oracle because my system locked up again when I started Oracle and then started vmware. Also I noticed your boot scripts are in /etc/init.d/ while mine are in /sbin/init.d/. What would account for this difference? I am running SuSE 7.0 Thanks, Mike On Friday 20 July 2001 08:50, you wrote:
Hi Mike,
On my system, there's a file, /etc/init.d/vmware, which gets invoked when the machine boots. There are links to the file, thus:
/etc/init.d/rc3.d/K22vmware -> ../vmware /etc/init.d/rc3.d/S01vmware -> ../vmware
The two kernel modules that you need are vmmon and vmnet. If you don't have these modules in /lib/modules/your_kernel_rev/misc, then you'll need to rerun vmware-config.pl.
Now, that should solve the problem of why they're not loading upon boot. However, I have no idea why your system locked up in the first place.
Later,
Andy
