NIC not Seen in ESXi 3.5 on Intel D945GTP

Hello,

First-time caller?!

Anyways, got a box running on an Intel D945GTP motherboard.

All was well, at least after having to mod. the install script to "ISCSI."

Now the yellow and gray config. screen says that I have no IP (0.0.0.0). This has stopped me dead in the water.

I have tried all that I can think of and much of what I have found on the Internet to no avail.

What should I do as this MB is supported and the NIC worked right before (Had XP running directly on it, the box, not a virtual)

Additionally, how do I get out of this yellow and gray hell and out to a text console to run esxcfg-boot -p as needed?

Thanks,

Chris

To access the command line press the "F1" key and type in "unsupported". Once prompted enter the root password. (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1003677)
