CentOS 5.5 on ESXi 4

[dgard]

Hey all,

I'm installing my first Linux OS (CentOS 5.5) using vSphere, but when presented with the list of common Linux installs CentOS in not there - Can some body please let me know which I should choose to install it as?

Thanks.

it should be there if you're using vsphere 4.1, anyway you could try with other linux and select either 32/64 bit.

Thanks - using version 4.0 at the moment, so will look to upgrade it.

As CentOS 5 is a "clone" of RHEL 5, go for RHEL 5.
