Hi,
If I manually install ESXi on my hardware and then create an ESXi VM inside (ESXi on ESXi), then try build from Cobbler with gPXE, it works !!!
So gPXE/ESXi 5 - OK So gPXE/ESXi 5 - Not OK So gPXE/ESXi 5/ESXi 5 - OK
So it must be some kind of hardware issue, some strange interaction between gPXE and ESXi on that hardware ?
Maybe I need to put this to the gPXE people ?

Folks,
I have four servers with 16Gb RAM for which I had a manual PXE install environment in parallel with cobbler to handle the VMs. They used PXE to install
I have been trying these patches. After a bunch of configuration ESXi starts to install. Then I get an error
"fatal error: 10 (out of resources)"
Does gPXE limit memory in any way ? My only change was to switch from PXE to gPXE.
Thanks
John
Weird, there is a single google result for that error message:

I've gpxe'd on a VM with only 1GB, so I'm not sure what you're running into. Maybe a network card issue? Does it fail when loading the s.v00 file like in that forum post? _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
