ricktendo Posted November 23, 2007 Author Posted November 23, 2007 You cannot install VMware inside VMware Workstasion if you use the original installer (try it and youll see)But if you use this installer which uses the /qn switch it should install just fine. Why it did not work for you no idea. Quote
shahed Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 hey ricks, thanks for the update, great stuffs, keep it up! :thumbsup_anim: Quote
J.C. Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 been a while since that post but in the intrest of sharing knowledge, RebootYesNo isn't all caps (global) so you can't set it from the command line, it also only controls whether the user is prompted for reboot, to quote from RogueSpear's tutorial on repackaging apps with admin studio :'"RebootYesNo". I always set this to No. This will NOT suppress a reboot however. It only suppresses whether or not the installer should notify the end user whether or not a reboot is necessary' and 'REBOOT (all caps) for the property name. Then click in the cell to the right of that and enter in ReallySuppress. This is what will suppress a reboot.' so you can use REBOOT=ReallySuppress on the commandline or do the actuall edit with orca (or any other msi editor)anyhoo, thanks alot for this wonderfull piece of work ****! looks like the RebootYesNo=No switch in config.txt does not workChange it to /norestart and that should work Quote

NIM Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Both links fixedty N1K for the transferMate, we had problems only with your folder, we couldn't extract the contents after it was packed. So I had to manually download locally and upload all of your files to the new server.Please check if all the required files are there, if not I will put a bomb on that old sh*** hosting servers.

cotty59uk Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 First thing i would like to state is that this is my first post and also that i am pretty new to this fantastic forum, secondly i would like to hold my hands up in pure guilt and state that it is probably me that has downed all the Add-ons from the forum over the past few weeks without so much as an acknowledgement or a thanx to all those wizards who build these brilliant Add-ons, the reason being that i work away from home all the time and have to grab these awesome pieces of brilliance at just a moments notice and so i think that i am well overdue as to come onto the forum expressing my sincere gratitude not only to all the wizards who build these masterpieces, but also to every member for their excellent help in helping others. "Thanx Guy's For Everything".Thankyou so much for this Awesome Add-on -Ricktendo64 - :thumbsup_anim: It's very much appreciated Mate and works flawlessly. Quote
ricktendo Posted September 26, 2008 Author Posted September 26, 2008 8-29-08- Updated v6.0.5 build-118166- Updated Tools v7.8.3.4558- Removed all x64 and 9x stuff from both VMware and its Tools installers (NT x86 only)Edit: the Tools are done Quote
ricktendo Posted September 26, 2008 Author Posted September 26, 2008 OK I was wrong...VMware is fine it was my modded bios I use for my OEM Vista DVD But the tools are not workingI re-added the VMware builder and removed the tools Quote
shahed Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) Thanks for a fast update rick.btw there is a typo mistake on your first page. (am pretty sure) it should be VMware Lite v6.5.0 build-118166, not v6.0.5 EDIT:VMware Lite addon builder works like a charm, BUT it does not install the lite version of VMware on x64 OS (am on vista x64)Rick, is this normal, not installing on x64 OS, or a bug with the builder?
