ESX 3.0 and Fedora 9

I downloaded a Fedora 9 image and I am trying to install it, however the installer cannot see the virtual disk. I am sure this is something fairly easy to solve and that I am just not searching properly within the forums for the answer. I have tried both Linux (Other 32-Bit) and Red Hat 32 bit as the selection for the type of server to no avail. (Fedora 9, ESX 3.0.3, and about 150 gigs free on my vmfs of which i have allocated 60gigs for the install)

Any suggestions? Thanks guys and gals.

I think I found a work around. I switched from LSI Logic to BUSLogic for the bus type. This seems to be working at the moment.
