DELL服务器 安装VMware ESXi 5.0/1 No network adapters (无法驱动网卡 )解决办法

由于DELL R620/R820 配的网卡 Broadcom 5720 VMware默认没有驱动支持，所以在安装ESXi 5.0或5.1时会遇到网卡无法识别的问题。

No network adapters

No Network adapters were detected .Either no network adapters are physically connected to the system,or a suitable driver could not be located .A third party driver may be required.

Ensure that there is at least one network adapter physically connected to the system before attempting installation.If the problem persists,consult the VMware Knowledge Base.

可以在DELL官方网去下载定制版来安装（或升级）。

通过更改r820改为你自己的服务器型号即可

之前是找DELL工程师发给的包：VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.0.0.update1-623860.x86_64-Dell_Customized_RecoveryCD_A00.iso

在这里找到了下载地址http://downloads-us.dell.com/FOLDER00609866M/1/VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.0.0.update1-623860.x86_64-Dell_Customized_RecoveryCD_A00.iso

截止今日最新的版本号为：

5.1# 799733 (A02) 3/26/2013

5.0# 914586 (A00) 1/16/2013

网友的建议：即使之前安装了较高版本的官方版本，只要用低版本的DELL定制版Upgrade就能使ESXi认到网卡，并且版本号保持较高版本。
