installing VMWare Tools issue

[Jacqui1811]

Hi folks.
Not sure what I am doing wrong.
I am running VMWare on w2k and have Ubuntu Linux (Dapper Drake) on the virtual machine.
If I try VM -Install VMWare tools then an image of a disc drive appears on my desk top. I
If I go back into V M then I have the option to stop the install.
It stays like that no matter how long the virtual machine is left on.
Can anybody shed a little light please.
Thanks.
Jacqui.

You will need to open a terminal and cd to that drive that shows mounted on your desktop and run the install script.

I have cd'd to the correct drive but there is nothing in the folder to run install on.
