Josue,

I would like to know what server model you are using and if the ESXi version you installed is the customized Cisco ESXi version?

I bet this is a new installation... It looks like the server does not see an image to boot from, even though it looks like the boot policy actually points to the local disks, but I have also seen how weird things happen when the non-Customized ESXi .iso image is used.

Try to use the customized version found here ;

And check compatibility with one of my favorite tools:

I hope this helps you, if it did, rate it!
