首发通过PXE引导自动安装VMware ESXi 6.7

通过PXE引导自动安装VMware ESXi 6.7。与以前的版本相比，boot.cfg的更改也很小 ，需要针对成功的部署（内核）进行解决。

下载 VMware ESXi 6.7 ISO映像并将内容复制到C:\TFTP\TFTP\ESX。打开文件boot.cfg并更改路径，或仅复制/粘贴代码：

创建文件夹C:\TFTP\TFTP\pxelinux.cfg，并在其中创建 一个名为01-THE-MAC-ADRESS-OF-HYPERVISOR的文件，例如01-00-1F-C6-9B-D9-4C。复制/粘贴代码：

如您在下面看到的，我们有一个启动菜单，该菜单会自动引导到本地操作系统，或者我们可以选择安装Citrix XenServer或VMware ESXi。

创建文件夹C：\ FTP \ KS并在其中创建一个名为nuc06.cfg的文件，然后复制/粘贴代码：

我上面的kickstarter文件做了很多工作，但这是使您开始使用Hypervisor自动化的一个很好的例子。

最后，您需要一个TFTP / FTP程序，我正在使用Serva Community。

确保使用GUI或编辑Serva.ini文件以指定TFTP和FTP文件夹位置。
