Help Deploying from OVF Template on ESXI

[Chrisoo1 0]

I currently have DSM 5.2 running on my ESXI (v6.0) server using XPEnobot and using a LSI SATA controller card set to passthrough.

 

First of all... I downloaded Jun's loader and tried the deploy it using the OVF template and it fails every time on uploading the vmdk file. I get an "IO error". Anybody have any ideas why???

 

Second... Information is kind fragmented here, so I am confused if I still need to mod the VID and PID values when running on ESXI.

 

Please help and thanks in advance.

The template doesn't work but you can just add the .vmdk in the file bundle as the boot device.

You might want to edit the grub.cfg first so the esxi option is the default.
