# C- Install the ISO in a VM in ESXi 5.5 using the vSphere Clientġ5- Upload the replica ISO to the datastore in a folder called /ISO for exampleġ6- Create a new VM in vSphere Client using Centos 6 64-bit as systemġ7- Click Edit settings for that newly created VMġ8- In the settings attach the ISO from the datastore to the CD/DVD drive and make sure you tick the checkbox to turn it ON at startupĢ0- Start the VM, clonezilla will start, then just follow the menu, it will install the Quickstart VM into the new VM in ESXiĢ2- Start the VM, congratulations you have a Cloudera Quickstart on ESXi running fine !!

# B- Create an ISO of the clonezilla replicaġ1- Create a new VM in VMware Player with Clonezilla ISO as systemġ2- Run the Clonezilla VM and then choose to create an ISO from the previously created replica on the USB driveġ3- Clonezilla will create the ISO on the USB flash drive (8GB was enough in my case to hold the replica and the ISO)ġ4- When the ISO is created turn off the Clonezilla VM # A- Creating a replica of the Quickstart VM with Clonezillaġ- Install the Quickstart VM on a local PC with VMware Playerģ- Turn it off then download the clonezilla ISO from the WebĤ- Attach the clonezilla ISO to the CD/DVD drive of the Quickstart VM in VMware Playerĥ- Make sure that the CD/DVD drive is turned ON when the machine startsĦ- Start the Quickstart VM in VMware Player and hit ESC as soon as it bootsħ- Choose to boot from CD/DVD, this will make the VM boot into clonezillaĨ- In clonezilla create a replica of the system on an external USB flash driveĩ- For info 8GB flash drive is enough, and the replica of the system is a set of files created by clonezilla Here are the detailed step if anyone runs into a similar problem : It was tedious but the idea was to create an ISO clone with clonezilla from the local VMware Player and use that ISO to install the system on VM in vSphere Client. I have managed to install the Quickstart VM on VMware ESXi 5.5 Update 1 !
