The first step in deploying VMware Server based virtualization involves the obtaining and installation of the software. The installation process differs considerably depending on the particular operating system running on the host computer. The goal of this chapter of is to cover the steps necessary to download and install VMware Server 2.0 on a Linux host. Installation on the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems is covered in the chapter entitled Installing VMware Server 2.0 on Windows Systems.

Whilst detailed instructions for each of the many different Linux distributions currently available is beyond the scope of this chapter, installation on both the Red Hat (encompassing Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora and CentOS) and Ubuntu (i.e Debian based) Linux distributions will be covered in the hope that the instructions will meet the needs of the majority of Linux users.
