I've installed ESXi 3.5 U5 on an HP Proliant DL360 G3 successfully, but when I try to create a VM, I can't get the CDROM to be selected for boot. I've tried setting the CDROM to be a client device, and then hitting ESC during startup, then connecting the CDROM (to both the real device and an .iso image) on the vmware client console, then selecting CDROM as the boot option from the boot menu. I am able to boot from a floppy in a similar manner, and I even put in a boot floppy with CDROM support in and was able to browse the CD on the client. But nothing when I try to boot from CD. I've also tried with CDROM as a host device and as a .iso that I put on the host datastore. Nothing. The PXE boot just kicks over to network boot and then fails saying "No Operating System Found."
All of my firmware and BIOS are upgraded; maybe I'm just doing something really stupid?

You may be doing this, but when you use a host device or datastore ISO image (my personal preference) you have to check the "connect at power on" option.

Yes, honestly, I've tried every possible combination of .iso and real drives, host and client, etc. What am I missing here? I know the cds and .isos are good. I'm really pulling my hair out here. What else can I try?

Have you tried an datastore ISO and did you have both connected and connected at power on checked?

If you try it another time and it doesn't work can you post the log file from the VMs folder (check the time stamp for the latest .log file).

Thanks, Dave. I've tried again with the .iso on the datastore. No luck. here is the .log file:
