I loaded ESXi 4.0.0 onto a new ML115 g5 quad, with virtualisation support turned on, single 160GB HDD and 2GB ram, it was looking good…
….I rebooted and watched the system start, but then 20 seconds after the console loaded I got a PSOD !
System halted with #pf Exception (14) in world 9111:sfcbd ip 0x041800e…
last instruction at that address was smbios_get_64bit_cru_info
What could it all mean ?
I see the g5 has an imperfect reputation when it comes to ESXi 4 but no one else seems to have posted the same experience – what do you know, learned guru ?
cheers
