packages prerequisite for installing VMtools in CentOS VM

Just image my laptop and building all the VMs again with newer version of OS.  Need to install VMtools on the new CentOS 6 VM but forget the list of packages required.  Find VM kb2002290.

To resolve this issue, run this command before installing VMware Tools:
yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers gcc mkinitrd
