script for setting up ubuntu 14.04.1 server 64bit on VMware workstation 11.1.0 build-2496824
# ubuntu server setup
# install ubuntu 14.04.1 server 64-bit on VMware with easy install
# put this script file in guest OS and run
# this includes:
# build-essential
# ssh,
# git,
# curl,
# vmware hgfs,
# correct timezone (HKT)
# install
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y upgrade
sudo apt-get -y install build-essential ssh git curl
# re-config vmware-tools because hgfs fails without build-essential
sudo vmware-config-tools.pl -d
# reconfig timezone to Hong Kong (UTC +8)
sudo sh -c "echo 'Asia/Hong_Kong' > /etc/timezone"
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -f noninteractive tzdata
# inject public key
mkdir ~/.ssh

since no easy way to transfer this script into guest OS
(i.e. copy and paste not available between host and guest without vmware tools, ssh not yet installed)

so added the snippet:

wget http://goo.gl/YMFcax -O setup.sh
chmod a+x setup.sh
./setup.sh
