The installation steps of ESXi6.5 are actually very simple. First, log in to the official website address to download the ESXi6.5 image, use the UtralISO image creation tool to create a CD-ROM or U-disk boot image, and insert the installation medium into the server to start the installation (if necessary, please adjust the server boot sequence) ).
The installation steps are as follows:
Start the server, enter the following interface, and choose to start the installation from mirroring
Load the ESXi image file
Press enter
and press F11 to accept the agreement
Select the location where you want to install the system, usually the first local disk
Select the keyboard layout
, enter the system password, and press enter
Press F11 to confirm and start the installation
Wait for the installation progress to complete
After the installation is complete, you need to restart the server. Remember to unplug the installation media before restarting.
