VMware GSX Server Administration Guide
Mandrake Linux, Red Hat Linux or SuSE Linux Guest
The following steps provide examples of what you may see as your guest operating
system recognizes the new virtual hardware. The specific steps may vary, depending
on the configuration of the virtual machine.
1. Power on the virtual machine and let it update the CMOS.
2. When Kudzu appears, follow the instructions to detect new hardware and install
the proper drivers.
3. Shut down the Linux guest and power off the virtual machine.
4. Choose VM > Upgrade Virtual Hardware.
5. A message cautions you that the operation is irreversible and recommends that
you back up the virtual disks before proceeding. To continue, click Yes.
6. A message describes what is about to happen. Click OK to continue.
7. Power on the virtual machine.
8. When Kudzu runs, it detects an Ensoniq:ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] sound device.
9. Click Configure.
Note: When using Kudzu in a Mandrake Linux guest, do not migrate the
existing network configuration. If you try to do so, you see a blank screen.
Instead, click No when asked if you want to migrate the existing network
configuration.
