Ok I have spend the day trying to get VMware tools to install, had some luck VMware now show's that tools are installed and current but unable to shutdown or reboot. I have not installed GCC and can't seem to get it install or find it.
What I have done so far.
Downloaded from http
://sourceforge.net/projects/efw/
EFW-COMMUNITY-3.0.5-beta1-devel-201504071248.iso
EFW-COMMUNITY-3.0.5-beta1-devel-201504071601-SRPMS.tar.gz
Copied VMwareTools-9.4.11-2400950.tar.gz from VM Tools install
Installed from ISO, extracted RPM's from EFW-COMMUNITY-3.0.5-beta1-devel-201504071601-SRPMS.tar.gz
used rpm -ivh *.* on the SRPMS directory. Everything installed no errors
ran ./VMware-install.pl from VMware-tools-distrib directory
Install works always but can't locate the GCC path.
So where is GCC located?
How do I get GCC installed?
I am no Linux guy so please be gentle
