Well, this has done my head in...I have a client who wants to be able to redeploy using script based installation from an ftp server.
simple enough but for some reason this just doesn't want to work. I create the ks.cfg from the webAccess and copy it to the ftp server, boot to the esx install screen and type:
esx ks=ftp:/// method=ftp://<ftp server/
the install is working off the ftp server but i cannot get it to read the ks.cfg file either from the ftp site or from floppy. I've tried the few suggestions i've found but nothing seems to work.
