“Ideas are the only things that count, and politicians are, for the most part, pretty much irrelevant,” Ron Paul told the London Independent in December (’09?) http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1992201-2,00.html#ixzz0pnpBw8x7

Cisco UCS C210 and VMWare ESXi 4.0U1

Posted April 14, 2010 By Landis V

So, VMWare lists the UCS C210 in their supported device list, as well as the built in Intel 82576 NICs. Via a driver CD at least. Which seems to be its own quandary – the install craps out with an error about not having a supported network adapter before you get to the point where you can even load a network adapter. Catch-22. Currently trying to get ESXi 3.5U5 to load using the driver CD that supports the NIC and then we’ll see about upgrading afterwards.
