我总共有三次使用Linux(Unix)的经历。
第一次仿佛是很遥远的事情了，大三下期学校开设了unix操作系统原理课程，课是没怎么上好，但看到有同学装了redhat linux，就也想自己玩玩。那次真是教训惨痛，没作为什么准备，就直接从光驱开始安装了，心想它应该不会覆盖我的XP吧。也没怎么注意看提示，就这样装完了。那次对LINUX的印象不是太好，比起XP来，LINUX好像就比DOS好一点点。当然这是我当时浅薄的看法，大家千万别拿砖砸我，呵呵。发现用惯XP的我还是很不习惯用LIUNX，那时就只有一点点图形界面，主要操作还是靠打命令，加上我命令懂得少，又不能看电影听歌，又不能上网聊天，那个郁闷啊：）更惨的是，当我想回到原来的XP时，骤然发现已经没了。那个心痛啊，挖凉挖凉的，几百M的个人文档、程序、照片都掉了（其他如电影、MP3也就算了）。那一刻真是欲哭无泪。
第二次使用是大四的时候了，SUN的Solaris操作系统开源，由于我买了一本CSDN的＜＜程序员＞＞杂志，它附了一张Solaris的CD。我想不用白不用，就试试吧。这次小心多了，装了VMWARE后再装。于是，忙着下载VMWARE，看VMWARE的教程，鼓捣Solaris安装，我一向知道SUN的用户体验做得不好，果不其然，SOLARIS还没RED HAT“好用”（呵呵，又是很当时很浅薄的看法），唉，我说这LIUNX为什么尽管免费还这么难普及呢，看来不是没有原因的。于是LINUX对我来说就一直是个迷。
第三次就是这几天了。其实仅管我颇受挫折，但还是对LINUX不死心。大四上期开学一个多星期后临时决定考研，于是忙着找方向、学校，这个时候“嵌入式”跳入我的眼中。我隐隐约约听说过所谓一般的研究生，就比本科生自由一点而已，还是呆学校上课什么的，理论性比较强。我早讨厌这种学习了，于是不想报考工学或理学硕士，结果偶然之间发现了“工程硕士”这种类型。所谓工程硕士，跟工学硕士等“名门正派”来说，就是培养实践型人才的硕士，其学历跟工学硕士是一样的，但国内分单、双证，然后好像了解的人不多，对此有歧视心理，这是中国人正统的观念太强啊：）我看了很多文章后发现，嵌入式的发展方向主要分为偏硬和偏软方向，偏硬我就不多说了，偏软主要分三个小方向：ARM+LINUX,ARM+WINCE,ARM+VxWorks。我想挑战一下自己，就选嵌入式的工程硕士吧，而且想主修ARM＋LINUX方向，呵呵，由此我又跟LINUX结上了缘。最近看笔记本品牌时，发现一些PC大厂如DELL等居然声称要预装LINUX操作系统，这很反常啊，呵呵。于是想一探究竟，就下载了这款3.97G的Ubuntu。下面我详细讲讲我安装它的经验，希望对后来人有点帮助。
首先，下载UBUNTU是很方便的，上官方网站下载即可。我选的是最全的3.97G的版本，下载了八个小时左右。
其次，下载并安装VMWARE，最新版要为VMWARE6，但很难找到序列号，我用的就是这个版本，也没法注册，提示说只能用六天。如果谁有序列号或注册机欢迎共享。其实开始我提到过，我安装过VMWARE，那是版本5.5的，但跟很多人一样我安装不成功VMware tools这个巨爽的工具，本论坛里就有人提到了(VMware5 + VMware Tools 6也算创新了，呵呵）。我还是受到了它的一点点启发。那些能在VMWARE5.5下安装成功VMware tools（不是版本6）的，对我来说，肯定是超牛的人，希望有人做到（具体来说，就是在VMware5上安装Ubuntu7.04后再成功安装VMware Tools）并共享经验。
再次，就是在VMWARE中安装Ubuntu。具体过程也是比较简单的，网上超多教程，这里只简单提几句：
1、新建一个虚拟机；
2、设置虚拟机的光驱不是连接物理光驱，而是来自文件，并选好下载的Ubuntu7.04的ISO文件（下载后解压缩即得）；
3、启动虚拟机，自动开始安装UBUNTU，选择从文本方式下安装，我试过从图形模式下安装，像我这种配置几乎是不可能的了，竒慢无比。（虚拟机分配256MB内存）安装会很快，可以跳过网络设置；
4、安装好UBUNTU并启动后，点击VMWARE的VM菜单下的安装VMWARE TOOLS（必须启动UBUNTU的情况下才能安装，VMWARE会有提示的），然后就能在桌面发现一个光驱图标，打开，把那个带.gz的文件拖到桌面（其实就是复制到），然后然后解压缩到桌面，得到一个VMware-tools-distrib文件夹，从“应用程序／附件”打开一个终端，切换成ROOT用户，命令为：
sudo passwd root
会要求你输入切换之前用户的密码，并再次输入，提示修改ROOT密码成功。然后使用如下命令切换成ROOT：
su root
要求输入刚才设置的ROOT用户，这样就可以安装VMWARE TOOLS了。终于激动人心的一刻到了，用cd命令进入刚才解压缩的目录VMware-tools-distrib，如下是COPY我的整个安装过程，包括命令和显示结果：

The configuration of VMware Tools 6.0.0 build-44426 for Linux for this running
kernel completed successfully.
You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take
effect.
You can now run VMware Tools by invoking the following command:
"/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox" during an X server session.
To use the vmxnet driver, resvmxnettart networking using the following commands:
/etc/init.d/networking stop
rmmod pcnet32
rmmod vmxnet
modprobe vmxnet
/etc/init.d/networking start
If you wish to configure any experimental features, please run the following
command: "vmware-config-tools.pl --experimental".
Enjoy,

好了，到这里你就算安装成功了，记得去掉UBUNTU的ROOT密码，命令
sudo passwd -l root
提示成功后，再切换成原来的用户，命令
su 原来的用户名
就可以了。OK，大功告成，现在就尽情享受VMWARE＋UBUNTU＋VMWARE TOOLS带来的巨大好处吧：）至于好处是什么，我就保个密了，呵呵。也可以去VMWARE的官方站点查看，如果英文够好的话：）
注：我是缺省安装，就是一路回车，这篇文章是我在Ubuntu中通过Firfox提交的。
分享到此结束，希望不是黄道婆的裹脚布，又长又臭，有问题的可以回贴讨论，谢谢大家！
