Hi All.
I am trying to install ESXi onto a new HP Proliant ML110 G5. The machine freezes after the VMware tries to start with the cursor flickering.
The spec. is, Proliant ML110 G5. 1Gig RAM. 250 Gig. SATA.
Help please!!
Thanks. I used information from this sites:
http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3.5/Whiteboxes_SATA_Controllers_for_ESX_3.5_3i.htm
where they have installed ESXi in this product: HP ML110 G5.
Agli.
Any issues so far running ESXi on ML110G5?

Hi,
I installed at least 4 Maschines of the type ML110 G5 with the Esxi 3.5 U3 ... and they where running for quite some time. ( weeks without problems )
Yesterday I installed a ML110 G5 U4 !! and since than everything is different , ( First of all in Order to be able to install the ESXi 4 you have ! to change the settings in the bios form auto to STAT and Enable the RAID ) ( for U3 you have to DISABLE the Raid , in U4 ( as the device ist supported !) you have to ENABLE it.
I went back to the U3 release and gues What everthing works fine ...
If you Google for ML110 G5 Esxi U4 you will find some Information.
So I would say vmware just made some fine changes so that under U4 the ml110 G5 is not any longer usable .... WHY ?! Beats me ? ... There is also the Problem that they "fixed" the RCLI so that write and read is no longer possible , as descript in some blog.
In a Time where XEN Server is offering a wider variety of possiblities that step is in my Eyes not easy to "communicate" ;(
