考虑到大家很多人并不是我这款网卡，在这里贴出一个链接，其包含下面列出的网卡的驱动。使用方法跟下面正文的方法一样，只需要把网卡那部分替换成你需要的网卡驱动。下载时注意是 Direct Download links 下的 Offline Bundle of version XXX。

  • net-e1000e: Obsolete - Driver for Intel I217/I218/82579LM/82574L
  • net-tulip: DECchip 21140 Ethernet driver (This driver allows running ESXi as a VM under Microsoft Hyper-V)
  • net55-r8168: Updated driver for Realtek 8168/8111/8411/8118 based NICs
  • net51-r8169: Adds the blacklisted ESXi 5.1 built-in net-r8169 driver back to ESXi 6.0
  • net51-sky2: Adds the blacklisted ESXi 5.1 built-in net-sky2 driver back to ESXi 6.0

使用了10年的 Samsung 300e4a 笔记本，陆续升级到 10G RAM + 120G SSD + HD，现在换了新电脑后，觉得把它扔了实在可惜。于是在琢磨了身边人的各种利旧方案后，决定安装ESXi，以充分折腾。

优点：

缺点：

一、准备安装镜像（官方镜像中添加 r8168 驱动）

1、环境、文件准备：

PS> Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

PS> Install-Module -Name VMware.PowerCLI

安装该模块因为是在线安装，需要时间会久一点，这时候继续以下工作。

2、自定义安装镜像的操作

将上面的环境准备好，文件下载完后放在同一个文件夹下。

贴一下ESXi-Customizer-PS-v2.6.0.ps1的参数，可以看到功能还是挺多的：

PS> .\ESXi-Customizer-PS-v2.6.0.ps1 -help

This is ESXi-Customizer-PS Version 2.6.0 (visit https://ESXi-Customizer-PS.v-front.de for more information!)

Usage:
   ESXi-Customizer-PS [-help] | [-izip <bundle> [-update]] [-sip] [-v67|-v65|-v60|-v55|-v51|-v50]
                                [-ozip] [-pkgDir <dir>] [-outDir <dir>] [-vft] [-dpt depot1[,...]]
                                [-load vib1[,...]] [-remove vib1[,...]] [-log <file>] [-ipname <name>]
                                [-ipdesc <desc>] [-ipvendor <vendor>] [-nsc] [-test]

Optional parameters:
   -help              : display this help
   -izip <bundle>     : use the VMware Offline bundle <bundle> as input instead of the Online depot
   -update            : only with -izip, updates a local bundle with an ESXi patch from the VMware Online depot,
                        combine this with the matching ESXi version selection switch
   -pkgDir <dir>      : local directory of Offline bundles and/or VIB files to add (if any, no default)
   -ozip              : output an Offline bundle instead of an installation ISO
   -outDir <dir>      : directory to store the customized ISO or Offline bundle (the default is the
                        script directory. If specified the log file will also be moved here.)
   -vft               : connect the V-Front Online depot
   -dpt depot1[,...]  : connect additional Online depots by URL or local Offline bundles by file name
   -load vib1[,...]   : load additional packages from connected depots or Offline bundles
   -remove vib1[,...] : remove named VIB packages from the custom Imageprofile
   -sip               : select an Imageprofile from the current list
                        (default = auto-select latest available standard profile)
   -v67 | -v65 | -v60 |
   -v55 | -v51 | -v50 : Use only ESXi 6.7/6.5/6.0/5.5/5.1/5.0 Imageprofiles as input, ignore other versions
   -nsc               : use -NoSignatureCheck with export
   -log <file>        : Use custom log file <file>
   -ipname <name>
   -ipdesc <desc>
   -ipvendor <vendor> : provide a name, description and/or vendor for the customized
                        Imageprofile (the default is derived from the cloned input Imageprofile)
   -test              : skip package download and image build (for testing)

PS> Set-PowerCLIConfiguration -Scope User -ParticipateInCEIP $true

PS> ./ESXi-Customizer-PS-v2.6.0.ps1 -izip update-from-esxi6.7-6.7_update01.zip -dpt net55-r8168-8.045a-napi-offline_bundle.zip -load net55-r8168

顺利的话，很快就在目录下生成对应的ISO镜像文件。
我的输出如下：

PS> ./ESXi-Customizer-PS-v2.6.0.ps1 -izip update-from-esxi6.7-6.7_update01.zip -dpt net55-r8168-8.045a-napi-offline_bundle.zip -load net55-r8168

This is ESXi-Customizer-PS Version 2.6.0 (visit https://ESXi-Customizer-PS.v-front.de for more information!)

All done.

至此，安装镜像就准备好了。

3、制作安装用U盘

运行rufus，设备处下拉选择要写的U盘，使用“选择”按钮选择刚生成的镜像。“开始”写入，有提示的话都选择推荐。

等写入进程结束后，就做好了。

二、300E4A 使用U盘安装 ESXi 6.7.0 u1

此处只写一个暗坑，不知道是我的个例还是通病，记录一下。其他安装过程都没啥可多说的。
