Hi
Can we install bash shell on ESXi 5.0 ?
I think, it's impossible.
ESXi 4.1 and above has own command-line interface with specific commands.
What do you do by bash shell in ESXi?

In ESXi 5.* there is no service console like it used to be in ESX 4.*.
To do management, scripting and so one there is special VMware Appliance called vSphere Management Assistant (vMA). You can download it http://www.vmware.com/go/download-vm. You can use shell there to manage all hosts, create scripts and much more vMA Documentation
No, you cannot install bash shell. As mentioned above, you can use the vMA or you could use vCLI: vSphere Command-Line Interface Documentation or PowerCLI for scripting/automation.
