"nfs41client failed to load" error while installing esxi 6 update 1

For the home network lab, I am trying to install esxi X (from bootable usb drive). I tried many times but got the same error. It says nfs41client failed to load. And after sometime, it says no network adapters were detected.

Can anyone point to right direction to resolve the issue? Is it due to unsupported Ethernet port?

I couldn't install esxi directly. Instead, I installed vmware playr first and installed esxi on vmware player.
