Hur man installerar PC-BSD 7 i VMware fusion

vid Ross McKillop på September 22, 2008

Linux Mac

Denna ska tutorial vägleder dig som är varje, kliver av installationen långt igenom PC-BSD 7 i VMware fusion (version 2.0).

Notera: Ja satte jag denna i Linux kategori på enkel hjälp. PC-BSD är inte en Linux fördelning, men jag har inte en BSD-/Unixkategori, och den inte säkra I-förmiddagen ska jag gör nog BSD-/Unixtutorials för att försvara en. Behaga accepterar min ursäkter i förskott, om detta kränker dig.

  1. Först ser till du att ha VMware fusion 2.0 installerat på din Mac. Du kan nedladda ett 30 dag försök, om du inte äger redan en kopiera.
  2. Understödja, nedladda PC-BSD. Jag opted för Färdiga DVD ”installerar + valfria delar”,, så, att är, använde versionen i denna tutorial.
  3. Bränn .isoen till en DVD, när du har nedladdat PC-BSD. Växelvis kan du precis starta från .isoen i VMware, så du behöver inte förlorad `' en DVD, om du avgör att PC-BSD inte är för dig. Denna tutorial ska show dig hur man startar PC-BSD genom att använda båda metoder.
  4. Nu startup VMware fusion. Klicka Nytt knäppas för att skapa ett nytt faktiskt bearbetar med maskin.
  5. Om du har bränt PC-BSD till en DVD, se till att DVDEN sätts in in i ditt DVD-drev. Om VMware inte känner igen omgående, att du har en DVD i drevet (eller dig går att starta från .isoen), oroa inte. På det initialt avskärma, klicka Fortsättaklicka, eller, om det är icke tillgänglig Fortsätta utan disken.


    6. klicka för att förstora

  6. Nu bör VMware känna igen att PCBSDEN DVD är i ditt DVD-drev. Om det är metoden, opted du för (du har bränt avbilda till en DVD), ser till Använd fungerande systeminstallationsdisken: är utvalt och klickar Därefter. Om du använder, sparar .isona (inte brände det till DVD), valt Använd fungerande systeminstallationsdisken avbildar sparar:, valt Annat från det drop-down lista, navigera till PCEN-BSD .iso sparar, väljer den och klickar Öppet. Klicka därefter Därefter att fortsätta.


    7. klicka för att förstora

  7. Valt Annat som Fungerande system och därefter FreeBSD som Version. Klicka Därefter.


    8. klicka för att förstora

  8. På detta peka, om du är lycklig med det faktiska hårda drevet storleksanpassar (8GB), och det tilldelade beloppet av minne till PC-BSD (256MB vid standard), är du den gjorda inställningen - upp VMware. Du kan önska att ta bort kontrollen markerar från Öppna alltid detta faktiskt bearbetar med maskin när VMware fusion startar, particularly if you use VMware Fusion to run multiple operating systems. Click Finish and skip down to step #x below.

    If you’d like to change the default hard drive and/or memory sizes, click the Customize Settings button.

  9. You’ll save the settings for this virtual machine, so give it a name (I left mine as the default, FreeBSD, but something like PC-BSD 7 would have been more accurate). Click Save.

  10. From here you can customize a number of the settings for this virtual machine.


    11. click to enlarge

  11. Click the Processors & RAM button. I opted to increase the amount of RAM dedicated to PC-BSD from 256MB to 512MB. This change is entirely up to your personal preference. If you only have 1GB of RAM in your Mac, you may want to keep the default of 256. If you have 4GB+, you might want to go as high as 1GB. Click the Show All button to return to the main settings.


    12. click to enlarge

  12. Click the Hard Disks button if you want to allocate more than 8GB of disk space to PC-BSD. When you’re done, close out of the settings window. From the Virtual Machine Library screen, click the “play” (start) button next to your PC-BSD entry.


    13. click to enlarge

  13. PC-BSD will boot up.


    14. click to enlarge

  14. On the Welcome to PC-BSD! screen, hit the 1 key on your keyboard, or just wait for the countdown to finish.


    15. click to enlarge

  15. A bunch of text will fly by, and PC-BSD will set up a ramdisk and copy the setup image to it. This can take a minute or two.


    16. click to enlarge

  16. Once the setup image has been copied, PC-BSD will run a check on your installer archive. Though you can skip this step, it’s not recommended. Again, this process can take a couple of minutes.


    17. click to enlarge

  17. Finally, you’ll be presented with the first PC-BSD Installation screen. Select your System Language, Keyboard Layout and Timezone. Click Next.


    18. click to enlarge

  18. Review the License Agreement and assuming you agree, place a check in the I agree box. Click Next.


    19. click to enlarge

  19. On the Select installation choice screen, leave the defaults (Fresh Install, Desktop Edition and Install from CD/DVD/USB) selected. Yet again, click Next.


    20. click to enlarge

  20. Now you’ll need to set the Administrative (root) password for PC-BSD. Enter it in the provided fields. You’ll also want to add your first user to PC-BSD. Enter the required info in each box, and then click the Add button.


    21. click to enlarge

  21. You can add additional users here if you’d like (you can always add more once PC-BSD has been installed as well). If you want to auto-login with the user you just created, place a check in the Auto-login User (The first user listed will be logged on automatically) box. Click Next.


    22. click to enlarge

  22. Select your virtual hard drive from the Detected Hard Drives list, place a check both the Use entire disk and Install the PC-BSD bootloader boxes. Remember - you’re installing PC-BSD to a virtual environment. This won’t erase or alter your OS X files in any way at all. And now, you guessed it, click Next.


    23. click to enlarge

  23. Now select the not-required System Components you want to include with your PC-BSD installation. Just highlight the one(s) you want to include, and click the “down arrow” to move the software into the Selected Components box. Anything you don’t install now can always be added later. Click Next to continue.


    24. click to enlarge

  24. Finally! It’s time for the installation. For the very last time, click Next.


    25. click to enlarge

  25. Go grab yourself a cup of coffee or the beverage of your choice. PC-BSD doesn’t take that long to install, but it’s about as much fun to watch as paint drying.


    26. click to enlarge

  26. After the installation has completed, VMware will eject your DVD (unless you installed from the .iso file directly) and reboot PC-BSD.


    27. click to enlarge

  27. Again you’ll see a similar Welcome to PC-BSD! screen, and again, click the 1 key or just wait for the countdown to finish.


    28. click to enlarge

  28. Before everything starts up, you’ll be asked what screen resolution, color depth and video driver ou want to use. Leave the defaults (they can be changed later) and click Apply.


    29. click to enlarge

  29. Click Yes when asked if you want to keep the resolution.


    30. click to enlarge

  30. PC-BSD will start up, and you’re done! Assuming your Mac is connected to the Internet, PC-BSD should be as well. Click around, explore for a while, and have fun!


    31. click to enlarge

  31. While you’re using PC-BSD, or when you suspend/exit, you’ll probably be prompted to install VMware Tools. Though it’s not necessary, it does make working with PC-BSD and OS X a bit easier (you can seamlessly move your cursor from one OS to the other without having to click CMD + Apple Key etc).

    Thanks for the tutorial, worked fine on my iMac with Leopard.

    You can now download a VMWare image with PC-BSD pre-installed directly from the PC-BSD website. It’s big (~2gb), and I wish they’d made a torrent of it, but it’s there and it’s free. Pretty sweet.

    Thank you, what a great website.

    I am going to try and learn BSD, and running it in VM on my mac is great.
