    Hello, 

    I recently got a Raspberry Pi 5 16 GB and wanted to try ESXi Fling on it. I got the latest v0.3 firmware on it and it does boot the installer USB however right after it loads the crypto modules I get the error shown in the attached screenshot. 

    I am trying to use the latest "VMware-VMvisor-Installer-8.0U3c-24449057.aarch64"
    I have already updated the Pi to the latest firmware and tried a few different UEFI settings but nothing fixes this issue. 

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Thanks!

    That's a very early issue when VMKernel starts. and I don't have a Pi5 16GB yet to debug the issue.

    Have you tried booting a debian ISO with UEFI?
