Hi,
I have two questions and if anybody help me resolve it, I'd greatly appreciate it.
1) I have recently purchased this Intel BOXDG33FBC LGA 775 Intel G33 ATX Intel Motherboard with a WD 80 GB IDE Hard Drive to test installation of ESX 3.5. However, after the ESX Boots from CD, it asks for a driver to install and does NOT recognise the IDE Hard Drive.
I've tried using the ESX 3.0 as well and it does not help either.
I'm sure the Hard Drive does NOT have a problem as its running Windows Server 2003 right now without any issues.
2) I have a Rosewill SATA II Card with another SATA Hard Drive. This SATA Card came with a CD having card drivers for Redhat Linux in IMG Format.
Is there a way I can tell ESX 3.0 (or 3.5) to use the SATA Driver (in IMG Format) on CD so that I can use the SATA Hard drive for installation. I know this may not be a supported configuration, however I just wanted to try it as an alternative.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
