Hi All,
I installed VMware Player on my Windows 7 PC. Now I downloaded ubuntu (ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso) software from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop . I installed ubuntu via the instruction at http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/11287/how-to-run-ubuntu-in-windows-7-with-vmware-player/ .
It is version Ubuntu 12.04 (I switched from 12.10 to 12.04). Now I have the ubuntu installed and it
shows up in the left corner when I double-click on VMWare Player icon.
How do I get the UNIX like prompt in ubuntu here? I tried all icons
but I find no ways. The documentation in the above link shows there are
"Applications" ->"Accessories"->"Terminal" menus that takes it to
the UNIX like terminal. But I do not see such options.
I have uploaded the screenshots at bit.ly/ZqAGD7 . I removed Ubuntu 12.10 and installed the previous version 12.04
(ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-i386.iso) and ended up with the identical
screens. Could you suggest how I get to the terminal? Thanks a lot.
