Or more specifically the following.<br>
<p>
This section has the following instructions to make kernel source files usable so <tt>vmware-config.pl</tt> can compile the kernel modules.
</p>
<ol>
<li>Install <tt>kernel-source.$ARCH.rpm</tt>.
</li><li>Change to the <tt>/usr/src/linux</tt> directory. Run the following command:<br>
<tt>make cloneconfig</tt>
</li><li>Run the following command:<br>
<tt>make modules_prepare</tt>
</li>
</ol>
I was also having problems running VMWare Workstation 5 on a Suse 9.3 host and this fixed the problem for me.<br>
<br>
Haven't been able to try VMWare on FC4 yet as I got a boot block signal
error after installing. Still investigating but I suspect it may be
something to do with the LVM.<br>
