RH Fed 6. When I run the VMWare installer it ends up saying it needs the source files for the kernel and it can't find them in /usr/src/linux/include. I tried yum install kernel* and it pulled in quite a bit (including kernel-devel) but still get the error. What could I again try to install via yum to get the files it needs please?
Hi again Carl,

http://www.markwilson.co.uk/blog/2006/08/installing-vmware-server-on-fedora.htm

It works, even though originally written for fc5. For more help ask on the fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx

One thing to check beforehand is the commonissues on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bugs/FC6Common to ensure the matching headers and kernel are installed.
