Re: Virtualization Server and Network Setup?

That was my first choice. I tried the CD, but it wont seem to boot. I'm not sure if the hardware is a problem, but I downloaded the cd twice and burned it twice and it just blinks the cursor for a minute then boots off the first hard drive.

The compatibility tool only shows opteron and xeon processors, but I believe it runs on others. I would think if it was a problem with the hardware they would have it stop and show the error message, but I have no idea.

Your right about the ram, thats why i wanted to use ESXi. Im going to snag some RAM of the next machine that I can.

I've booted ESXi off all kinds of hardware, the limitation is usually the storage controller. Have you tried re-downloading and burning it on completely different hardware or possibly trying an older 3.5 image, which is 32-bit rather than 64-bit like the 4.0 versions?
