I've installed the compat6x libraries and made a symlink to /lib for libc.so.6 as per some docs I found; however, the vmware tools installation is still failing with: Unable to copy the source file /usr/local/lib/vmware-tools/modules/binary/FreeBSD8.0-amd64/vmxnet.ko to the destination file /boot/modules/vmxnet.ko. The reason being is that /usr/local/lib/vmware-tools/modules/binary/ only contains: FreeBSD6.0-amd64 FreeBSD6.0-i386 FreeBSD7.0-amd64 FreeBSD7.0-i386 Is this a bug in the vmware install script or have I missed something--or can I use a different option? Thing is, I'm on 9.0 RELEASE. Thanks.
