3.3.1 Download and Start the VMware Appliance
1. Download Ubuntu 9.04 as a VMware appliance from http://chrysaor.info/?page=ubuntu. When
writing this document it was packed in a tar-gz compressed file named
ubuntu904desktop.tgz
.
2. You can use 7-Zip to unpack the file. This utility can be downloaded from http://www.7-
zip.org.
3. In order to use the VMware appliance you need to install VMware Player. Download it from
http://www.vmware.com/products/player/ and follow the instructions to install the player.
4. Unpack the
ubuntu904desktop.tgz
file in a location of your choice.
5. Now double-click the
ubuntu904desktop.vmx
file to start the VMware Player. If vmx
files haven’t been associated with VMware Player you can start VMware Player manually and
then select the Open command and locate the vmx file.
6. When Ubuntu has started you will see a Login dialog where you can choose which user to
login, see Figure 6. Enter “user” (without quotation marks) as the user and “chrysaor.info” as
the password.
