i haven’t done a lot with ESXi yet except make a VM running it. just for future notes ESXi needs a SCSI disk and i think with a LSI logic controller, also it needs at minimum 2GB of ram, and an intel 1000 NIC.
the vmx file can be edited to achieve these settings (i know i got some of this info from googling, but i can’t remember the original sources).

vmx file entries:
scsi0.present = “TRUE”
scsi0.virtualDev = “lsilogic”
ethernet0.virtualDev = “e1000”
ethernet0.present = “TRUE”

the vm ran, but seemed to consume a lot of my laptops resources..which is fine it was just a test. a see if it really could be done kind of thing. i’m done messing around with for the moment…i’m sure i’ll revisit it sometime again in the future.
