  • 1.  ESXi v6.7 Installation - Realtek issue

    Hi,

    I have downloaded and tried at least 5 iso from the internet with esxi 6.7 injected with the Realtek network drivers.

    I have also created my own USB using the  commands.

    All the tries fail. The drivers are successfully loaded during the installation and there is no complaint about missing network driver. However in later steps I receive a blue/pink screen.

    Does anyone have any idea what should I fix?

    The message:

    The system has found a problem on your machine and cannot continue.

    Failed to validate acceptance levels: Failed to check acceptance levels: None

    Your trying to install ESXi 6.7 on an HP T530 thin client, I suspect almost every element of this is not on the HCL.

    Why are you trying to install an unsupported version of ESXi on an unsupported machine?

    yes that's a good point. I think I will gave up because I already spent 2 days.

    running esxi on anything else than HCL list is problematic..
