Post Esxi customizer supports esxi 5.1?
I'm having troubles with customizing esxi 5.1 using the 2.7 customizer. The customization process succeeds, the esxi install success, but when the machine reboots, I get an error referencing multi boot modules load failed because the image is corrupt.

Anyone else tried it yet?

Hmm, cannot reproduce. For me it works fine using
- VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.1.0-799733.x86_64.iso
- Chilly's e1001e.tgz driver
as input.

What driver package did you use? Can you please send me the log file of ESXi-Customizer to esxi-customizer@v-front.de ?

Thanks!

Please note: This issue has been resolved by using the TGZ repacking option "Force repacking" in ESXi-Customizer.
This is necessary with Chilly's e1001e.tgz package. Otherwise you will get a "Boot image corrupt" message when you try to install a system with the customized ISO.

At this time I can confirm that ESXi-Customizer is fully compatible also with ESXi 5.1!
