8.0.2 to 8.0.3 HardwareError

[Cyrille MAULIN]

Hello

I just upgraded from version 7.0.3 to 8.0.2 without any problems.

Following this I wanted to switch from 8.0.2 to 8.0.3 and I get this error message 

 

 [HardwareError]
 Hardware precheck of profile ESXi-8.0U3-24022510-standard failed with errors: <VFAT_CORRUPTION ERROR: A problem with one or more vFAT bootbank partitions was detected. Please refer to KB 91136 and run dosfsck on bootbank partitions.>
 Please refer to the log file for more details.

I've used this method for years to do the updates and I've never had any problems

esxcli software sources profile list -d /vmfs/volumes/datastore2/ISO/VMware-ESXi-8.0U3-24022510-depot.zip
esxcli software profile update -d /vmfs/volumes/datastore2/ISO/VMware-ESXi-8.0U3-24022510-depot.zip -p ESXi-8.0U3-24022510-standard

I have never worked on the SSH command line on an ESXi, can you help me

Thanks a lot for your help
