installing mac os on esxi 5.0

==================================================[ START ]====

To install the patch you will need to have root access to the ESXi host either via the ESXi Tech
Support console or SSH.

Step 1 – Upload the unlock-esxi50-496512.tgz file to a datastore on the ESXi server
You can use the vSpehere Client or any SCP utility such as WinSCP or CyberDuck to upload the file

Step 2 – Expand the tgz file on the ESXi host
Using a console propmt on the host and the root user issue the following commands:

~ # cd /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/
/vmfs/volumes/4e561d70-3ef76e89-2b00-000c29522c83 # ls
unlock-esxi50-469512.tgz

/vmfs/volumes/4e561d70-3ef76e89-2b00-000c29522c83 # tar -xzvf unlock-esxi50-469512.tgz
unlock-esxi50/
unlock-esxi50/uninstall.sh
unlock-esxi50/install.sh
unlock-esxi50/bspatch
unlock-esxi50/vmx-debug.bsdiff
unlock-esxi50/vmx-stats.bsdiff
unlock-esxi50/vmx.bsdiff

/vmfs/volumes/4e561d70-3ef76e89-2b00-000c29522c83 # cd unlock-esxi50/
