Re: VMware ESXi 3.5 On Dell 2550

The physical RAID controller has no relevance here. ESX does not directly present it to VM's. It sounds like RHEL 4 does not have a driver for the virtual SCSI controller that ESX presenting to the virtual machine guest. If ESXi is similar to the full ESX, there are two that it can emulate: An o
