New MacPro Late 2013 and ESXi 5.5

Hello,

I tried installing ESXi on my new macpro but it seems as though there is a problem. Even the modded version of ESXi on virtuallyghetto are not installing even though they work great on MacMini..etc..

Does anyone have any information when the ESXi will work on the new mac pros or how i can get ESXi installed on it?

Thanks

Hi

Welcome to the communities.

Did you checked HCL first ?

Use Fusion, then install ESXi inside A Fusion VM.  Like the other poster said, it's probably an HCL issue.

Just an update that 5.5u1 just released has the same symptoms. I tried ignoreHeadless=TRUE just to see if that would help it out.

Boot ROM MP61.0116.B04

SMC version 2.20f18

Guess I'll keep waiting.
