Having taken the plunge and presented at last week’s London VMUG, I can honestly say that it’s not easy but at the same time so satisfying to do. I *will* be back for seconds / thirds etc.

I’d like to add my encouragement to people to join these users groups and, more importantly, contribute to them.

Interestingly, the VMUG committee were in attendance at CloudCamp last week. It’s possible that they might take some ideas away from it for future VMUGs. That aside, CloudCamp is certainly worth attending. I look forward to seeing you at the next one.

changed bootproto to static instead of dhcp.

1 vmaccepteula
2 rootpw password
3 autopart –firstdisk –overwritevmfs
4 install usb
5 network –bootproto=static –device=vmnic0

“error encountered before the user interface was initialized- this system does not have a network interface card that is plugged in, or all network interface cards are already claimed. Installation cannot continue as requested”

I am installing on a Cisco c260 M2, and have a netwok cable connected M1 port going to a 3750 Switch.

Any ideas?? I dont want it to go through DHCP since I’ll have to set a static IP..

Thanks in advance
