When installing Debian 7 in a VMware VM, installing VMware Tools can be a bit of a conundrum. This page explains how to sort it:
http://briolidz.wordpress.com/2012/02/20/installing-vmware-tools-on-debian-6-squeeze/ When finalising the install, you can get the following message "Media change: please insert the disc labeled Debian GNU/Linux 7.0.0 _Wheezy_ Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20130504-14:44′ in the drive /media/cdrom/ and press enter". I found the solution to this here: http://www.jermsmit.com/tag/linux/ "Fixing this was a simple task. All that was needed was to remove or comment the reference to the CD/DVD from the /etc/apt/sources.list Example: #deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 7.0.0 _Wheezy_ Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20130$ steps are: log into your debian system sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list sudo if you are not logged in as root #comment out the line in the above example saving the file (ctrl x) enter y for yes" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kesey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10786 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98823
