It seems that patch <a moz-do-not-send="true"

with a newer vmware tools version is needed to install vmware
tools on OmniOS<br>
<br>
If someone gets it working too, a confirmation and step by step
howto<br>

- How to mount installer cd in ESXi and install tools <br>
<br>
would be very helpful (Maybee at the Omni wiki?)<br>
<br>
I will check this asap too (a lot of other work the next days)
to build an All-In-One system based on Omni instead of OI<br>

I would like to run Omni under ESXi 5.1 but found no info <br>
about how to install vmware tools. <br>
<br>
(I even tried to copy them from OI but got only an error when
tried to run the installer) <br>
