Hello, I have got Ubuntu 11.04 32 Bit* working with the VCL for our campus Make sure that OS model should be os_linux_ubuntu Ubuntu Linux OS Module VCL::Module::OS::Linux::Ubuntu The OS should be vmwareubuntu Vmware Ubuntu linux vmware vmware_images
Go into your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ You should make sure that you created ifcfg-eth0 to ifcfg-eth6, hear me out. I have all 6 on Auto, I had noticed that sometimes a eth3 would show up as a eth0 or the number can be off on the adapter numbering, so it was easy to add more adapters that are not there but set to auto if they show up, the image would kick off. I used just this information according to https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/Create+a+Linux+Base+Image DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes We are using DHCP, not static so it's a bit different then your setup. But I can let you know that it works. -Alex On Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 11:31 PM, Huang,Lei <lhu...@pvamu.edu> wrote: > Dear all, > I have to bother you again.
