[johnmcc22]

Anyone running Longhorn on a VM, we're running ESX 3.01 and once longhorn starts up, and at the Select the driver to be installed i get an error "No device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then cilck ok.

anyone does this successfully?

Yes - as with the Vista install you'll need to install drivers for the CD-rom.
