We are familiar with the method of customizing ESXi installation image is basically esxi-customizer-v2.7.x to complete, today I give you a new method, this method in ESXI6.0 start more suitable, as for why we try to know more.

The Preparation tool requires:

ISO files for Vmware-powercli-6.3.0-3737840.exe and Esxi-customizer-ps-v2.4.ps1 and ESXi 6.0.

Install Vmware-powercli-6.3.0-3737840.exe First, then run VMware vSphere powercli

First, you need to remove the PowerShell disable script restriction

Local read succeeded and added, because I didn't add the driver (driver name) on the website, so it failed to find it online.

Finally, we started to build our custom ESXi custom installation files (downloaded online)
