When trying to install vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi 5.5.0), the system consistently hangs on the yellow screen at Initializing storage stack... Has anyone seen this, or have any idea what may be causing it?
I'm installing it bare metal from a burnt CD using a Shuttle SZ77, i5-3470S GPU, 32GB RAM, a 2TB SATA drive, a 120GB SATA SSD, and a SATA CD/DVD ROM. The disks were working with a Linux installation on it.
Unfortunately, I don't have a serial header to hook up a serial console.
