Q: This driver needs vmware-tools to be installed in the guest os, is there any way around this?

These instructions needs the client tools to be available in the guest os, i was unable to install them after trying many times. How do i use a config drive (any pointer for this?) so that these instructions need not be run and a user does not have to install vmware-tools?

Sorry for the late response. I searched inbox but cannot find notification. This driver should just work. You don't need to specify guest os or anything. If it doesn't work, can you share your working env: OS type, Workstation/Fusion version, the command you run, and the logs you received. Also are you a minikube user or docker-machine user?
