Install procedure for vmware esxi 5.5u1 with mainboard Supermicro X7SBL-LN1 and 3Ware Raid Controller 9650-4LP with usb flash drive
in esxi 5.5 were old drivers droped, this is my procedure for creating a bootable flashdrive with the old drivers for nic and raid.
#prerequisites/downloads
1. download esxi from vmware website (registration required)
filename should be something like "VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.5.0.update01-1623387.x86_64.iso"
2. download "esxi customizer" from
http://www.v-front.de/p/esxi-customizer.html
extract into directory by starting the "ESXi-Customizer-vX.X.X.exe"
3. download rufus (tool for creating bootable flash drives)
