VMware 3.5 esx on HP DL360 using JaS.OSx86.10.5.4 not booting into installer

[fearthepus]

Alright, I've been reading this forum for a few days and still can't find the answer I'm looking for. So perhaps someone can assist.

 

 

Here's my setup:

 

HP DL 360 G3 server class machine

 

2 ultra 320 SCSI 146 GB HD'S

 

I doubt you need my exact system specs as I am running VM Server 3.5 on there. I've setup the VM as follows:

 

 

1gb RAM

 

1 64bit CPU

 

1 nic

 

Lsi logic scsi controller

 

HD1: 16 GB virtual device node: SCSI(0:0) Hard Disk 1

 

Independent/persistant.

 

HD1: 16 GB virtual device node: SCSI(0:1) Hard Disk 1

 

Independent/persistant.

 

HD1: 16 GB virtual device node: SCSI(0:2) Hard Disk 1

 

Independent/persistant.

 

 

I've disabled acceleration.

 

Hidden the NX flag from guest

 

Disabled support VMI paravirtualization

 

Allowed the host to determine MMU virtualizing.

 

(if you think any of these settings are un-necessary please let me know i've been trouble shooting and these are the changes i've made thus far)

 

I'm using Alcohol 120% to mount the JaS.OSx86.10.5.4.Client.Server.Intel.SSE2.SSE3.iso (I don't have an external DVD to hook up to the DL360)

 

 

I have a feeling that the install can't see my virtual HD's but I'm new to hackintosh so maybe I'm just doing something wrong with my config.

 

 

Any way this is my screen shot, it just sits at that last line and goes no further, many thanks for any help you can provide.

as i'm thinking to myself on how to resolve this issue, is there such a thing as a disk formatting utility for mac that is command line drive? something very easy to boot and let me format the HD's with the correct FS so that in case the install is having trouble seeing the drives?

 

any way any and all suggestions would be helpful, would really like to get this resolved thanks guys.
