Now, installing VMWare tools involves knowing which type of kernel you have, PAE or non-PAE. To check, do a
yum --enablerepo=vmware-tools install \
uname -r
If the output of the command mentioned above contains ''PAE'', then you have a PAE kernel and the following command should be used to install VMWare Tools
yum --enablerepo=vmware-tools install vmware-tools-esx-kmods-PAE vmware-tools-esx-nox
Otherwise, you don't have a PAE kernel and the relevant command to install VMWare Tools is
yum --enablerepo=vmware-tools install vmware-tools-esx-kmods vmware-tools-esx-nox
