So just installed ESX 3i, 3.5.0, 7113 on some new Dell PowerEdge 2950's.
However, I can't get access to the CLI through the console (keyboard/mouse) by pressing alt-F1. I get what appears to be a log dump, but no login prompt.
SSH is also disabled. I know this because when I try to ssh to the ESX server, I get a TCP reset in return. Doesn't matter if I am on the local network or not.
TIA.
