When running Parallels 3 I had all my tools working for Ubuntu 8.04 and Windows XP. Because I heard there would be extended graphics capabilities with 4.0 I upgraded. Big mistake. I'm operating slower with the graphics intensive programs but I can live with that. The one thing I can't live with is that Parallels Tools will not install on my Ubuntu VM. I tried mounting the drive and running sh install as root and nothing. This is horrible. Please help.
Hello jlocksmith, Would you, please, follow the advises from documentation: http://download.parallels.com/desktop/v4/docs/en/Parallels_Desktop_Users_Guide/22570.htm and when meet any troubles - copy the output from terminal to some .txt and attach to your next post here. Thank you.
I can't even get past step 4. I type in the first two lines then get this: joe@joe-macbook:~$ mount /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro) proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) /sys on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) varrun on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,mode=0755) varlock on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,mode=1777) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755) devshm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) lrm on /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic/volatile type tmpfs (rw) securityfs on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw) gvfs-fuse-daemon on /home/joe/.gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=joe) /dev/scd0 on /media/cdrom0 type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,utf8,user=joe) joe@joe-macbook:~$ /dev/mapper/Vo1GroupOO-LogVo1OO on /type ext3 (rw) bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' joe@joe-macbook:~$
The only command you need to type on step 4 is mount I can see you have CD mounted than sudo umount /dev/scd0 Then connect Parallels Tools image and continue note Yours is /dev/scd0 not /dev/hdb
