So... Yea, I can't get Parallels Tools to install in Ubuntu Server 14.04. Please don't link me to the same link I see in other threads. It doesn't work. Clearing the DVD drive, rebooting, and trying to reinstall the Parallels Tools doesn't work. The /media/cdrom/ drive is empty.
I don't think that Ubuntu server automounts disks. You will have to manually mount it. The easiest way to find it is by the label in /dev/disk/by-label/ Then mount it using: sudo mount /dev/disk/by-label/Parallels\\x20Tools /media/cdrom This really should be pointed out in the install guide.
Thank you very much Nicolas, that worked a treat. And your right, they should include your fix in their documentation. The do include a warning triangle telling you what to do to install the tools, but that information was not helpful, well not in my case at least.
