参考: Windows Vista RC1 をインストールしたい(vmware player)
まずはこちらから「Windows 7 beta」をダウンロード
$ cd ~
$ mkdir -p vmware/win7beta
$ cd vmware/win7beta
$ qemu-img create -f vmdk image.vmdk 20G
$ vi config.vmx
—
#!/usr/bin/vmware
config.version = “8”
guestOS = “winxppro”
memsize = “512”
displayName = “Windows 7 beta”
svga.maxWidth = “800”
svga.maxHeight = “600”
floppy0.startConnected = “FALSE”
ide0:0.present = “true”
ide0:0.fileName = “image.vmdk”
ide1:0.present = “true”
# CD-ROM
#ide1:0.fileName = “auto detect”
#ide1:0.deviceType = “atapi-cdrom”
# ISO-IMAGE
ide1:0.fileName = “/path/to/7000.0.081212-1400_client_ja-jp_Ultimate-GB1CULFRE_JA_DVD.iso”
ide1:0.deviceType = “cdrom-image”
# Ethernet
ethernet0.present = “true”
ethernet0.connectionType = “nat”
# Sound
sound.startConnected = “TRUE”
sound.present = “TRUE”
sound.virtualDev = “es1371”
sound.fileName = “-1”
sound.autodetect = “TRUE”
—
$ vmplayer config.vmx
後はインストーラの指示に従う。
以上
