+ VMware ESXi 6.5 guestOS types
2
+ =============================
3
+
4
+ Based on my research and some trial & error, I made this list of guestOS types that are compatible with ESXi 6.5. I started with some api documenation from vmware that listed guestOS types.
5
+
6
+ >http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-6-5/index.jsp#com.vmware.wssdk.apiref.doc/vim.vm.GuestOsDescriptor.GuestOsIdentifier.html

+
8
+ But they didn't quite work when put directly in the vmx file... I noticed none of my existing vmx files had the word "Guest" in guestOS line. I also noticed in the list that the 64 bit entries were inconsistent. (Some have _64, others are -64, and others are just 64.) I removed the word Guest and set all the 64 bit OS's to be standard "-64". The results seems to work for various OS's I installed, but I certainly didn't try all of these. So here is my list... Please report any errors.
