Hi guys,
This is for the installation of vmware player in Kali not how to install a virtual instance of kali. For this example I am using the 64bit version of Kali:
1. Download the vmware player from:
https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/fre...are_player/5_0
2. Once downloaded open a terminal and navigate to the directory where the bundle was saved. Enter the following command to make it executable:
chmod +x VMware-Player-5.0.2-1031769.x86_64.bundle <---- The name of the file you downloaded.
3. In the same terminal run the following command to install the packages needed by the vmware player installer:
apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`
4. To start the graphical installer enter the following:
./VMware-Player-5.0.2-1031769.x86_64.bundle <----- The name of the file you downloaded
Follow the prompts from here, pretty straight forward installer
Once the install is completed it can be found in \Applications\System Tools
Cheers,
Koz
