You run the Linux bundle installer to install Workstation Player on a Linux host system. By default, Workstation Player is installed silently, and the installation progress is displayed in the terminal. When Workstation Player is launched for the first time, a dialog box asks you to accept the EULAs and configure necessary settings. At the same time, pure console installation is also supported. You can run the installer with the --console option to install and configure Workstation Player in the terminal, without the first-time dialog box appearing during the first launch.
Prerequisites
- Verify that the host system meets the host system requirements. See Host System Requirements for Workstation Player.
- Obtain the Workstation Player software.
- Familiarize yourself with the Linux command-line installation options. See Linux Command Line Installation Options.
- Verify that you have root access on the host system.
Procedure
What to do next
After Workstation Player is installed, you can exit from the root account. You do not need to be root to run Workstation Player.
