CD Based NFS Install problem.

So I have my CD based NFS installation working with a Linux VM.

However when I try to replicate this on a physical box the ESX server is not able to mount the NFS directory specified in my .cfg on the network. Instead the language is displayed.

When I manually select NFS Image and point it to my NFS share I can continue the installation.

I'm convinced there is is some sort of network issue here, anyone else had the same problems?

Hello,

My servers have broadcom's as well and they work 100% of the time. Yet, I do not use NFS, but instead HTTP to load my systems. If you switch to HTTP instead of NFS, will it work? All my servers are broadcoms. Now, my DHCP server is hosted on a physical box however. THat could be the difference.

Best regards,

Edward
