Use ESXi-Customizer-v2.7.2 custom ESXi installation disk

Past couple of years, Vmware almost like a virtual domination of the market. For if this trend and treat them gone, the industry may soon be eliminated. So spare time to make time to learn, practice Vmware technology. The problem is that Vmware for enterprise launched, the official mirrors can only be used on the recommendation of the server. But this is no way to it? Of course not, you know ESXi in a variety of black Synology, openwrt the group of players is played with water from the wind. Users would have to work out methods on a regular machine installed. Although this article is my original, but not really original ideas and methods. Write it down, just as a record of it. Below normal installation process began walking again.

Because the need to download registration information to fill a mess, there is time to fill in this information, they would have finished downloading. Once you find the latest version of esxi file name, using bing to search the file name, and then find the results from the download address. Here not long-winded, to download. After the download is complete, it must first discs, in view of the drive now basically does not exist, we use U disk to start, so dials are also engraved on the U disk.

这里我们要从头再来了,需要自己定制一下专用的安装盘。
前面出错的地方是提示没有网卡No Network Adapters,机器肯定有网卡,只是这个安装盘里没有网卡的驱动。Vmware官网不提供它们不认可的硬件驱动,好在有第三方提供了vib格式的驱动,我们只要把第三方的驱动集成到官方的安装镜像里就行了。要集成驱动进去,首先我们要搞清楚,机器的网卡到底是什么。我这里这里这台机器还没装系统,所以我使用winpe进去查看,winpe里带了AIDA64,可以很方便地查看硬件信息。
