Hi,
- First, I’m totally new with ESXI and Linux J
I’m trying to install ESXI 5.1 but I have some difficulties.
My configuration is :
- SSD 120 GB with Windows 7 installed
- 2nd hard drive Seagate 2 TO for storage.
- No CD player on the computer.
- Internet broadband with 3G with the mobile phone connected through the USB port.
I had to format the Seagate 2 TO with 2 partitions (1.50 To and 500 GB) to install ESXI from a USB drive.
The issues are :
- ESXI have been installed but it looks like the ESXI tools needs to be downloaded but the mobile phone is not recognized. How can I solve this?
- When ESXI has been installed , I selected the seagate 2 TO and ESXI has created 4 partitions:
D: 3.99 GB (contains 4 folders :Core - Downlo~1 – Log - Var)
E: 119 MB free of 249 MB (plenty of files with the .voo extension)
F:249 MB free of 249 MB (Boot.cfg and IMGDB.TGZ)
G:80.2 free of 285 MB (Packages and Var)
Why can’t I select one of my initial partitions (1.50 To or 500 GB) when I install first ESXI?And what can I do to retrieve the unallocated space?
When I check the disk management with windows 7 , it looks like ESXI had created and reformatted the partitions D E F G in Fat.
Thank you for your help
