Hello.
VMware ESXi is type-1 hypervisor, but can it use any OS for boot? If yes, what is its name? I know type-1 hypervisor don't use any OS normally, but how about device drivers and....
Thank you.
ESXi has its own OS - the VMKernel - included.

Thus, the VMKernel is an OS? Something like GNU/Linux?
Yes, it's a proprietary OS. see e.g. https://www.v-front.de/2013/08/a-myth-busted-and-faq-esxi-is-not-based.html
