Create Ubuntu server instance under Parallels (obviously).
-
Start VM, goto Actions - Install Parallels Tools... to mount the ISO image.
- Note: if this fails, or updating tools for an existing guest you can do the following:
- Goto
Devices
>CD/DVD 1
>Connect Image...
. - Select the following ISO image:
/Applications/Parallels Desktop/Contents/Resources/Tools/prl-tools-lin.iso
. - This will mount the tools CD image.
-
From the terminal, run the following commands:
$ sudo su $ apt-get install gcc make $ mkdir -p /media/cdrom $ mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom $ cd /media/cdrom $ ./install
-
Follow prompts to install tools.
-
Reboot
-
Host shares should now be mounted in Ubuntu guest via the just installed
prltoolsd
service, set to start on system boot-up. -
All done
