Installing on ESXi 6.5

(1/1)

rmills:
Trying to test out TinyCore or TinyCorePlus on an ESXi 6.5 machine. However when I try to install I can't see any hardrives. I can only install SCSI controllers, I don't have an option to install IDE or SATA drives. Are there any workarounds to use the default LSI or Buslogic controllers with ESXi 6.5?

andyj:
Delete the existing hard drive, and create a new hard drive. Then you will have the option to change it to SATA.

rmills:
Thanks, that was it!

Mount the ESXi 6.5 ISO image to the host.
Connect to the DCUI console of the host.
Power-On the host hardware and allow the host to boot from the ISO image.
The boot process will begin with the Boot Menu and progress to the Loading ESXi screen.
