USB device on Vmware ESX

Thu Feb 12, 2009 9:03 am

It MAY be possible to boot a USB disk that is pre-installed with Mikrotik ROS with vmware esx. I am working on it and will revert. Has anyone else managed yet?

Not on ESX, not using USB, but I have successfully tested the 4.0 beta on vmware w/s 6.5 (probably, the latest one). It runs damn fast with massive performance. I have also put a live 3000 user traffic on top of that. It rocks.

I do not have ESX but had I had that i'd run all the mikrotiks on that. Its blazing on VMs.

Why could you not boot the thing from ESXi with a USB stick?

I am going to try it now....
