Lost in conversion ?

I have made a VM in Fusion that is working. (Base system until point of configuration)

I converted to a OFV with the conversion Tool

Deployed the OVF using vSphere Client under Windows

Starting up under my ESXI server, it is only giving Apple Boot and a spinning wheel.

Where to look what goes wrong ?

Hi,

is your ESXi server running on Apple Hardware?

Because the Apple EULA only allows you to run OSX on Apple branded hardware.

If your ESXi server doesn't run on apple hardware I guess it's not a bug, but a feature by VMware to prevent EULA-violation
