For a customer evaluation, we're trying to install ISE 1.2.1.198 on a VMware ESXi 4.1 VM from an iso image in a VMware datastore mounted as the VM DVD drive; the installation starts, but after the initial boot fails with an error that the ISE software DVD is not in the DVD drive. I'm wondering:
1) Has anyone else experienced this?
2) Has anyone successfully installed this version from an iso in a datastore?
The install guide only mentions installing from iso with a DVD in the VM host drive.
I'm currently downloading the .ova file as a workaround, but as Cisco have provided the .iso to the customer I'd prefer to get that working if possible.

Jon,
I install from an iso in the datastore all the time. Everytime I have seen the error that you are receiving, it is due to a damaged/corrupt iso file. Try downloading the iso file again. That will likely fix the issue.
