Before installing Parallels Tools in a Linux guest OS, make sure that you have the gcc package and kernel sources installed. If these packages are not installed, the Parallels Tools installer will worn you. The kernel sources package name depends on the type of Linux operating system you use: it can be kernel-devel, or kernel-headers, or something else. For more information about the kernel sources, refer to the Installing the GCC package and Kernel Sources in Linux section.
