IOS-XRv 6.0.0 fails to boot on VMware ESXi or Workstation or VirtualBox

[spapageorgiou]

Hi all,

I can't make IOS XRv 6.0.0 (and older ones like 5.3) to boot in vmware.

I have tried to import the ova to:

- VMware workstation 10 (on two different PCs vtx/vtd enabled)

- VMware ESXi5.5 (on server hardware)

- Oracle VirtualPC

All the above failed. When I press start, I can see the boot prompt, I'm pressing enter to boot IOS-XRv and then it says "booting IOS-XRv.." and stays there, without doing anything else. This happens, with both 6.0 and 5.3, on all the mentioned virtualization enviroments.

I can't be that wrong. There is a problem with the ova's? There is a setting, I'm missing?

Thanx,

Spiros

I have the same problem. I am running VMware ESXi v6.5.0.
