Michael,

Apologies… I never thought to look at the AstLinux documentation.

However, and this is for the archives, here are my particulates:
- VM Fusion v7.1.3
- ESXi v5.5

Following your instructions, I was unable to import the .vmdk file into ESXi. 
After several frustrating attempts, I instead did the following:

1. Followed your instructions to create a .vdi file with VirtualBox
2. Exported the VM as a .ovf
3. Modified the .ovf file as per the following site: 
http://www.itsecurenet.com/virtualbox-ova-to-vsphere-ovf/
4. Imported into ESXi

This seems convoluted, and I’m sure I’m making a mess of it, however everything 
is now working.

Thank you again for an excellent project!
   Shamus
